PARIS — Still working on her French, Coco Gauff is already excelling at the French Open.
At age 18, the young Floridian is into the women’s singles final at Roland Garros without losing a set and continued her poised and precocious run on Thursday with a resounding 6-3, 6-1 victory over Martina Trevisan of Italy.
Gauff — in her first Grand Slam singles final — will now face the most daunting task available in women’s tennis: trying to stop No. 1 ranked Iga Swiatek.
Swiatek, 21, extended her winning streak to 34 matches in Thursday’s first semifinal by overwhelming Daria Kasatkina, 6-2, 6-1.
