Cilic beats Hewitt to reach Queen's final

Defending champion Marin Cilic has defeated Lleyton Hewitt in the semi-finals at Queen's to advance to the final for the second year running.

It was the perfect start for the Croatian, who broke his opponent in the very first game of the match, which was enough to see him to the first set, although he had to save three break points serving for it.

The Australian lost his opening service game again in the second but battle back from 2-0 down to move ahead 5-2. He was broken in the ninth game but fought back straight after to level the match at 1-1.

The third set was comfortable for Cilic, who broke twice on his way to a 6-2 win, and he now moves on to face Britain's Andy Murray in tomorrow's final.
