Kevin Anderson beats Gilles Simon to reach Queen's final

Kevin Anderson reaches the final of the Aegon Championships at Queen's after beating Gilles Simon 3-6 7-6 3-6, setting up a clash against either Andy Murray or Viktor Troicki.

Kevin Anderson has reached the final of the Aegon Championships at Queen's after beating Gilles Simon 3-6 7-6 3-6.

The South African coasted to a first-set win after breaking his opponent's serve in the eighth game with a ground stroke before closing out the final game with a fine volley.

The second set was a harder-fought affair, as both men went to tie-break and Simon survived a match point to ultimately square proceedings.

Despite being in a good position to build on levelling the scores, the Frenchman succumbed in the third set as his error in the eighth game led to Anderson subsequently claiming the match with an ace.

Anderson will now play either Andy Murray or Viktor Troicki in Sunday's final.
