Coco Gauff battles past Aryna Sabalenka to win first Roland Garros title, second Grand Slam crown!
Young American Coco Gauff has won her first Roland-Garros title by shocking world No.1 Aryna Sabalenka in a gripping three-set women’s final on Court Philippe-Chatrier on Saturday evening.
The 21-year-old recovered from losing a dramatic 78-minute first set on a tiebreak to win 6-7(5), 6-2, 6-4 in two hours and 38 minutes for the second major trophy of her career.
Gauff adds a first Roland-Garros title to her US Open success from 2023.
The world No.2 is the first American to win the Roland-Garros singles title since Serena Williams in 2015, and the youngest American since Serena Williams in 2002.
