Andy Murray reached the doubles final at Queen’s as the Briton’s dream return to tennis continued five months after career-saving hip surgery.
He and Feliciano Lopez beat third seeds John Peers and Henri Kontinen 7-5 6-7 (5-7) 10-7.
It was a third match of the day for Lopez, who reached the singles final before heading straight out to resume their suspended doubles quarter-final.
They play Britain’s Joe Salisbury and American Rajeev Ram in Sunday’s final.
After completing a 6-4 7-6 (7-3) win over Britons Dan Evans and Ken Skupski in a quarter-final that had been suspended on Friday for bad light, they stayed on court to play the semi-final.
“I’m very happy to be in the final,” Murray said.
“It was a good match. It was an unbelievable effort from Feliciano. He’s played a lot of tennis in the last couple of games. He’s not young anymore!”
