French Open 2022: Coco Gauff beats Martina Trevisan to set up Roland-Garros final with Iga Swiatek

Coco Gauff beat Martina Trevisan 6-3 6-1 to set up a French Open final with Iga Swiatek.

For all the errors from both players, it was Gauff who advanced and the teenager has the firepower to trouble Swiatek provided she finds her best form.

Trevisan was warned but appeared to take little notice, as there was no change to her approach, while Gauff did little to endear herself to the crowd by repeatedly questioning line calls.

The lack of authority on serve was a key facet of the opening set. Trevisan was broken on four successive occasions, which allowed Gauff to close out the opener in 46 minutes.

Trevisan called the trainer at the end of the first set, and after receiving treatment on her right thigh she stopped the run of breaks by holding at the start of the second.

But the Italian did not have the firepower to keep Gauff at bay – as the American broke in the fourth game and went on to secure her place in her first Grand Slam final.
