After finishing as the runner-up in 2022, second seed Coco Gauff went one step further this time, capturing the Roland Garros title by battling past world No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka 6-7(5) 6-2 6-4 on a windy Saturday in Paris.
In just 19 minutes, Sabalenka’s aggressive and powerful play propelled her to a commanding 4-1 lead. But Gauff responded with resilience, reeling off three straight games to level the score at 4-4. Just when it seemed Gauff had completely shifted the momentum, Sabalenka struck back with another break.
