In the first semi-final of the day, Murray and Wawrinka kept each other in perfect balance until the final set, when the Swiss star dominated thanks to superior fitness.

Murray had taken the lead in a tiebreak after the first, but Wawrinka stole momentum in the second set and started the third on fire. The Scot hit back, pushing to a 5-5 tie before making his move to avoid another tiebreak, and momentum seemed to be entirely with Murray.

The fourth set turned into another thriller, however, with Wawrinka winning the tiebreak this time around. By the deciding, both men seemed spent, but Wawrinka found a second breath and lost just one more game.

As shared by TennisTV, the 32-year-old has an impeccable record in Grand Slam finals:

That record will face its toughest challenge yet on Sunday, however. Nadal once again made quick work of his opponent on Friday, losing just seven games on his way to a dominant win over Thiem.

The king of clay seemed in a hurry and determined to make a huge statement, as he kept improving throughout the match, winning the final set without a single blemish. Former tennis pro Mardy Fish was in awe:

BBC5Live's David Law highlighted his unique achievements on clay:

With the exception of his upset at the hands of Thiem in Rome, Nadal has been in sensational form throughout the clay season, but he won't take Wawrinka lightly. Consistency has always been the Swiss star's biggest weakness, but on form, he's perfectly capable of beating every single player on the tour.

Nadal's superb showings so far in Paris suggest he should add a 10th title to his tally, however. The 31-year-old has been unplayable and has barely broken a sweat compared to Sunday's opponent.
