This year's Venus Rosewater Dish will be lifted by either a German or a Frenchwoman.
Germany's Sabine Lisicki battled through a tough semifinal to set up a clash 2 with France's Marion Bartoli for the Wimbledon title.
CRI's London correspondent 3 Tu Yun has more.
In their previous two meetings, Sabine Lisicki and Poland's Agnieszka Radwanska were equally matched, each with one victory over the other on hard court.
But when they went head to head for the third time, the 23rd-seeded German got the upper hand, overcoming a wobbling second set to beat the 4th-seeded Pole 6-4,2-6,9-7.
Lisicki says the experience acquired through the last match against defending champion Serena Williams helped.
"A little bit in the third set when I was down 3-0. I thought 'Ok, you've done it against Serena. You can do it again today as well. Just hang in there.' And the crowd was super. Definitely 4 it gave me so much confidence. And Wimbledon is my favorite tournament. I love it so much and I cannot believe I'm in the final."
With that victory over Williams, Lisicki became the first German woman to reach the Wimbledon final since Steffi Graf in 1999.
She will face off against Marion Bartoli in the ultimate 5 match.
The 15th-seeded Frenchwoman thrashed 20th-placed Belgian Kirsten Flipkens 6-1, 6-2.
It's Bartoli's second time to reach the Wimbledon final.
"We had some great passing shots and some great lobs. Everything was working so perfectly 6. To do that in the semifinals of Wimbledon was an amazing feeling."
The women's singles final will be held on Saturday.
