Great Britain joins China and Russia as the only nations with four women in Saturday's final.
Jan Bartu, Pentathlon GB's Performance Director said : 'It was an exciting day with two very different stories. Heather and Katy sailed through the competition with a good swim, strong fence and combined event, they were never at risk of missing the final.'
'The other two girls struggled from the outset in the fencing discipline but fought back in the swim and combined event.'
