The ruthless Coco Gauff beats Karolina Muchova in straight sets to win the China Open
Coco Gauff overpowered Karolina Muchova in straight sets to win the China Open on Sunday for her second title of the year and eighth overall. The 20-year-old American and last year's US Open champion stormed to victory in Beijing 6-1, 6-3 in one hour and 16 minutes. After a disappointing few months by her standards, including surrendering her New York crown in the last 16, Gauff adds the China Open to her triumph in Auckland in January. Sixth-ranked Gauff, under a new coaching team in the Chinese capital after splitting with Brad Gilbert last month, wiped away tears at the end.
It was Gauff's third win in as many matches against Muchova, who suffered a career-threatening wrist injury and missed 10 months of tennis before returning this summer.
“It's great to see you back on the field. You are such a great player and hopefully we will play many more finals,” Gauff said of her defeated Czech opponent.
“It's incredible to see how well you managed your season after so many injuries,” said Gauff, whose mother was courtside and claimed her biggest victory since the US Open.
It turned out to be one match too far for Muchova, who at the age of 49 was the lowest-ranked finalist in the history of the prestigious WTA 1000 tournament.
“You punched me,” said Muchova, last year's French Open finalist and two-time US Open semifinalist.
Gauff got off to a fast start, breaking for a 2-0 lead in the first set and then holding her own serve without conceding a point.
The young American was already leading 3-0 with barely ten minutes on the clock.
The 28-year-old Muchova sent an ace to get on the board, but Gauff was in the mood and her serve – her biggest problem of late – was shooting.
Gauff had three break points in the sixth game and turned the first streak into a 5-1 lead against a shocked Muchova.
Gauff rattled off her third ace of the match, giving her two set points.
Her serving swings returned briefly, but she wrapped up the first set in 29 minutes on her third set point.
Muchova, chasing only the second title of her career, disposed of top seed Aryna Sabalenka in the quarterfinals before beating Olympic champion Zheng Qinwen.
She found her feet late at the start of the second set and broke for a 2-0 lead, but Gauff immediately broke back en route to a comfortable win.
