Gauff Edges Out Fernandez in Beijing

Coco Gauff and Leylah Fernandez engaged in a very lengthy battle in Beijing during the third round.

Despite conceding a break in the first set, the American secured the first set with a score of 6-4. The second set started well for Gauff, who managed to break her opponent right away.

But that was without counting on Fernandez's comeback, who broke back immediately before taking the lead by seizing the American's serve at 5-4.

The third set was extremely disjointed, marked by 9 breaks in 12 games played. While Gauff led 5-2 with a match point to follow, the Canadian managed to level the score at 5 games all, due to a serve still not up to the standard of the world No. 3.

At the very end of the match, the American managed to break her opponent and hold her serve to ultimately win 6-4, 4-6, 7-5 in 2 hours and 47 minutes of play.

She will face Belinda Bencic or Priscilla Hon in the next round. With a victory, Gauff will qualify for the WTA Finals.
