Amanda Anisimova Dominates Coco Gauff to Reach China Open Final
World No. 4 Amanda Anisimova showcased a stunning display of power at the China Open in Beijing, breezing past Coco Gauff in the semifinals of the WTA 1000 event in just 58 minutes. The victory marked Anisimova’s fifth final appearance of the year and her third WTA 1000 final, following a runner-up finish in Toronto last year and a title win in Doha earlier this year.
Anisimova’s triumph over Gauff not only secured her spot in the final but also solidified her status as the only player this year to have wins over the current Top 3 players in the world—No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka, No. 2 Iga Swiatek, and No. 3 Gauff. She defeated Sabalenka in the Wimbledon semifinals, Swiatek in the US Open quarterfinals, and now Gauff in the Beijing semifinals.
Anisimova’s Dominant Performance
Anisimova’s power game was on full display as she raced to a commanding 6-1, 6-2 victory over Gauff. She dominated the first set by taking a 5-0 lead and continued her strong performance in the second set, where she once again surged ahead to a 5-0 lead before Gauff mounted a late comeback attempt.
With almost twice as many points and winners as Gauff in the match, Anisimova’s dominance was reflected in the statistics. She finished with 59 points to Gauff’s 30 and 15 winners to Gauff’s 8, all while committing fewer unforced errors.
Reflecting on her performance, Anisimova expressed her excitement about reaching the final and acknowledged the challenge of facing Gauff. “I knew that I was going to have to play really well against Coco to get the win, and yeah, I’m really excited to be in the final,” she said in her on-court interview.
Looking Ahead to the Final
Anisimova now awaits either the No. 5 seed, Jessica Pegula, or the No. 26 seed, Linda Noskova, in the final in Beijing. Both players faced off in the second semifinal on Saturday, setting the stage for an exciting final showdown against Anisimova.
With her impressive run of victories over top-ranked players and commanding performance against Gauff, Anisimova is poised to continue her success in the final and further solidify her position among the elite in women’s tennis.
