Coco Gauff and Jessica Pegula celebrate WTA Finals qualification with another final

Coco Gauff and Jessica will play at the WTA Finals in both singles and doubles and they added another final to their tally.
The Americans played a really strong doubles event from the start and were heavily favoured in the final against the very solid Schuurs and Krawczyk. They proved they were truly better in the final by winning in two sets and securing the trophy.
It was an interesting match as the Americans were clearly better but they relaxed too much at certain times leaving their opponents' chances. The first set was mostly comfortable as they broke their opponents twice for a 6-3 finish.
The second set was more complicated because they allowed it to be. After holding massively from 15-40 down to make it 1-1, Pegula and Gauff jumped out to a 3-1 lead. They allowed Schuurs and Krawczyk to battle back and make it 3-3. They then took the 5-3 lead but dropped serve when serving for the match.
They got another chance to serve it out at 6-5 but wasted a match point and got broken. Eventually, they got another chance in the tiebreak when they took a 6-3 lead and it was enough as they closed it out 7-5.

AceOfBase10-11-2024 - Zheng v Gauff the best final we could get. Both were and remain in top form the last few weeks. Queenwen even the whole year almost. If she finds her aces she's a contender. If not, Gauff's gonna take it.MrAndreeva08-11-2024

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
