Coco Gauff struggles on serve but wins in Wuhan

Advertisements

French Open champion Coco Gauff put in a stuttering performance but secured victory over Jasmine Paolini to reach the final of the Wuhan Open.

The 21-year-old beat the seventh seed from Italy 6-4 6-3 to reach her first final since her win at Roland Garros in June.

Gauff may have won in straight sets but struggled on serve, being broken five times and serving seven double faults – with Paolini actually winning more points in the match.

Gauff will face world number one Aryna Sabalenka or Jessica Pegula in the final.

Defending champion Sabalenka extended her winning streak in Wuhan to 20 matches with a straight-set victory over Elena Rybakina in the quarter-finals on Friday.
