Gauff Merciless Against Uchijima: Only One Game Conceded and a Swift Qualification in Wuhan

Le 08/10/2025 à 08h24 par Adrien Guyot

Coco Gauff perfectly handled her first match at the Wuhan WTA 1000 tournament.

Following Jessica Pegula's qualification earlier in the day on the same court, another American top 10 player made her debut at the Wuhan WTA 1000 this year, and it was Coco Gauff.

World number 3, the 21-year-old player faced Moyuka Uchijima for the second time this season. At Indian Wells, she had struggled and had to work hard to win (6-4, 3-6, 7-6).

This time, Gauff did not face the same difficulties. In complete control of the match, the recent semi-finalist of the Beijing WTA 1000 wrapped up the affair in just 50 minutes of play (6-1, 6-0).

Dominant on all her service games, as she did not concede a single break point against the quarter-finalist of the Madrid WTA 1000, this year's Roland Garros winner advances to the round of 16. There, she will face either Sorana Cirstea or Zhang Shuai.
