Mary Joe Fernandez upset second-seeded Zina Garrison, 3-6, 6-4, 7-5, to reach the final of a $250,000 tournament at Filderstadt, West Germany, where she will meet Argentina’s Gabriela Sabatini.

The top-seeded Sabatini defeated Laura Gildemeister of Peru, 6-1, 6-2.

Natalia Zvereva and Gretchen Magers both won semifinal matches at Moscow to set up a Soviet Union-United States final in the first professional tournament to be staged in the Soviet Union.

Michael Chang upset top-seeded Stefan Edberg of Sweden, 6-3, 6-7 (5-7), 6-3, to advance to the final of an international tournament at Hong Kong.

The third-seeded Chang, who also beat Edberg in the final of the French Open, will meet defending champion Miloslav Mecir of Czechoslovakia in today’s final. Mecir defeated Richey Reneberg, 6-2, 6-4, in the other semifinal.
