Coco Gauff faces Marketa Vondrousova in the final set of games in the WTA Finals. Gauff begins the match second in the round-robin group of this outdoor hard court tournament with Vondrousova bottom after two defeats. The American teenager began this group with a win over Ons Jabeur, dropping just one game. Up next was a match against Coco Gauff and her terrible record against the world number two continued. Gauff lost the first set 6-0 (the fifth 6-0 set in this tournament) to the Pole and the second 7-5. The 19-year-old will definitely go through to the semi-finals if winning this match. . It's a busy week for Gauff with her also playing in the doubles with Jessica Pegula. That's not going too well either with two defeats so far. Not qualifying for the knockout stages might help her singles campaign though.

Marketa Vondrousova's WTA Finals campaign began with a loss to Iga Swiatek. The first set was lost on a tie-break but she failed to win a game in the next one. The Wimbledon champion's week got worse when being beaten in straight sets by Ons Jabeur on Wednesday. Mathematically she could still qualify for the final if beating Gauff but she's now lost four consecutive matches. It hasn't gone too well for her since winning the Wimbledon title  Gauff has won both of their previous matches, most recently in Montreal. Both wins have come on a hard court and strangely included a 6-0 set win for the American. We go for Gauff to get the win that will take her into the last four.
