Unseeded Brazilian teenager Joao Fonseca will take on No. 8 seed Alejandro Davidovich Fokina of Spain in Sunday's Swiss Indoors Basel final.

The 19-year-old Fonseca reached his first ATP 500 final with a 7-6 (4), 7-5 win against Spain's Jaume Munar. He overcame a 4-2 deficit in the second set and finished with 39 winners while only facing one break point.

Davidovich Fokina was leading 7-6 (4), 3-1 in Saturday's other semifinal when Frenchman Ugo Humbert retired due to injury. He became the fifth player to reach four or more ATP Tour finals this season.
