Ostapenko after her victory over Swiatek: I was confident I was going to win.

Jelena Ostapenko put on a real show on the Doha court to beat Iga Swiatek and reach the final of the WTA 1000 Doha.

In fine form with her tennis this week, the world No.37 admitted that she had arrived on court with a high level of confidence, against an opponent she has now beaten five times in five encounters:

"I was confident that I was going to win against her. I knew I could give her a hard time.

We've played a lot of matches against each other and I know how to play against her.

I'm proud of the way I handled my emotions this week and very happy to be back in the final here."
