Gauff and Sabalenka face off in French Open final

For the first time in seven years, the best two women's players in the world will meet in a Grand Slam final when Aryna Sabalenka and Coco Gauff face off at the French Open.

A new women's singles champion will be crowned either way, with world number one Sabalenka seeking a fourth major singles title and second-ranked Gauff a second.

Gauff, the US Open champion in 2023, finished runner-up in Paris three years ago, while two-time Australian Open winner and last year's New York champion Sabalenka is in a first Roland Garros final.

The pair have five wins apiece from 10 previous meetings before going head-to-head on Court Philippe Chatrier, where the winner will take home 2.
