Aryna Sabalenka staged a remarkable comeback to defeat Coco Gauff 1-6, 6-4, 6-4 in the semi-finals of the Wuhan Open, overcoming a first-set deficit and Gauff's initial dominance. Gauff, aged 20, struggled with her serve, accumulating 21 double faults, which ultimately shifted the momentum in favor of the top-seeded Sabalenka. The Belarusian, a three-time Grand Slam champion, acknowledged the intensity of Gauff's play but capitalized on her mistakes to reach her third consecutive Wuhan final. In the final, Sabalenka will face China's Zheng Qinwen, who won her semi-final match against Wang Xinyu. This victory extended Sabalenka's impressive winning streak to 19 in her last 20 matches, further solidifying her status in the tournament. The match lasted two hours and 28 minutes, with Sabalenka hitting 31 winners and becoming the first player to record 1000 winners in WTA-1000 events since data collection began in 2021.
