Caroline Garcia to face Alycia Parks in Lyon Open final

Caroline Garcia continued her strong play in her hometown beating Camila Osorio 6-2 6-2 in 72 minutes of play to advance to the final against Parks.

It's the best possible final fans in Lyon could have gotten because not only will they see the native player in the final, but they will also see her take on Parks who has been on fire indoors for a while. The American plays very similarly to Garcia as she has a powerful serve and hits a very powerful and flat ball.

The match against Osorio was a rather comfortable win for Garcai as she cruised in both sets demonstrating all her raw power. Osorio tried her best but she didn't have the necessary level today to be anything more of a nuisance against the very solid Garcia. Parks overcame Maryna Zanevska today in a competitive match where the Belgian player provided more effort in the second set.
