Two finals and two defeats for Coco Gauff this weekend as Kristina Mladenovic and Caroline Garcia sealed the Women's Doubles title on home soil at Roland Garros.
Garcia and Mladenovic outlasted Gauff and Jessica Pegula in a 2-5, 6-3, 6-2 win to add to their 2016 triumph in 1 hour and 44 minutes. It also adds a four for Mladenovic who won twice with Timea Babos back in 2019 and 2020.
After getting swept in the opening set, they took charge in the second set breaking the Pegula serve for 5-3 before Garcia served it out to level up.
In the opening game of the the third set saw Garcia break the Gauff serve and they raced away to 4-0 from there and although they let initial match points slip away, they didn't spurn the third opportunity as Garcia wrapped it up.

- 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".
