Andy Murray reached his first singles final on British soil in almost seven years by beating Jordan Thompson in straight sets at the Surbiton Trophy.
Murray, 36, came through a tricky test against the Australian but saw off the defending champion 7-6 (7-5) 6-3.
He meets Austria's Jurij Rodionov or Belgian Zizou Bergs in Sunday's final.
Murray's most recent British singles final appearance was in 2016 when he beat Novak Djokovic in the season-ending ATP World Tour Finals in London.
