But Swiatek was on the Saturday Court Philippe Chatrier just a different house number. The Pole quickly pulled away to 4:0 and it took 23 minutes for Gauff to celebrate her first game win. Lute “Coco, Coco”-Calls echoed across Center Court. However, the point win was not a sign of a possible turnaround. Just nine minutes later, Swiatek made the win of the first period perfect with the second set point.
Gauff with impressive performances
In the second round, Gauff started a little braver and even took the serve from the big favorite. She pulled away to 2-0, but then the Pole got serious again and won the next five games in a row. Gauff was able to get her serve through again, but a little later the one-sided final was over. Gauff will still go down in history as a winner of this year’s French Open. With her refreshing press conferences and her important political statements on the subject of gun violence in her US homeland, Gauff made appearances that will be remembered.
