Gauff Defeats Swiatek To Reach WTA Finals Semis

00:01:24

Coco Gauff has advanced to the semifinals at the season-ending WTA Finals after defeating Iga Swiatek in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Gauff defeated the defending champion Swiatek 6-3, 6-4 to join Aryna Sabalenka in the semifinals of the event. Sabalenka will now end the year as the world number one after Gauff beat the second-seeded Swiatek for only the second time in 13 attempts. “It feels great. I knew going into the match, despite our head-to-head, I had a lot of confidence and I felt like I was playing great tennis. Even when I was playing a little bit sloppy, the games that I lost were still going to deuce. That gave me confidence and I knew if I stayed solid I had the chance to close out the match,” said Coco Gauff. Swiatek saved four break points in the first set before misfiring a backhand to give Gauff a crucial lead in the opening set at the fifth attempt. Gauff, the 2023 US Open champion, closed out the first set on Swiatek’s serve after the Pole hit a wayward forehand shot out of bounds. Swiatek was able to hit back in the second set after Gauff stumbled and was forced to save five break points in her opening two service games before her opponent finally broke through. However, Gauff was able to break back instantly with the pair trading breaks in the following games before the 20-year-old served out the match.
