Coco Gauff Powers Into Wuhan Open Final

French Open champion Coco Gauff continued her impressive form with a commanding win over Italy's Jasmine Paolini, advancing to the Wuhan Open final. The American third seed won 6-4, 6-3, marking her third WTA 1000 final this year.

Gauff seized control after an initial set marked by a tight opening. Both players exchanged five consecutive breaks, but it was Gauff who triumphed, closing the set with tactical precision. In the second set, despite Paolini's brief 3-2 lead, Gauff's resilience shone through.

She fought back, breaking Paolini's serve and ultimately serving out the match. Gauff now prepares to face world number one Aryna Sabalenka or fellow American Jessica Pegula. "I'm happy with how I played today," Gauff remarked. "It's about focusing on my game."
