Tsonga, who beat Dimitrov 6-4, 6-3, will face Swiss tennis ace Roger Federer in the final, after the world number three defeated Spain's Feliciano Lopez 6-3, 6-4.

Frenchman Tsonga beat Andy Murray in the quarter-finals in three sets, and finished off Bulgarian Dimitrov's challenge in under an hour and a half.

Tsonga's win on Saturday has taken him to three career victories over Dimitrov without reply, the report added.
