This Sunday evening, Coco Gauff and Jessica Pegula faced off in the final of the WTA 1000 in Cincinnati. The match immediately turned in Gauff's favor, who won the first five games of the match.
A slight hope for Pegula in the second set
Despite an initial break back from Pegula, Coco took the first set 6-2.
Gauff also started the second set very well with an early break. While she was serving for the match at 5-3, she saw her compatriot break back.
Unfortunately for her, this hope of a comeback was short-lived as Pegula, down 5-4, conceded her serve and lost 6-2, 6-4.
Gauff won the Cincinnati tournament for the second time in her career, the first being in 2023.
