Coco Gauff overcame 10 double faults and the first set she has dropped at the French Open to beat Madison Keys 6-7 (6), 6-4, 6-1 on Wednesday and reach the semifinals for the third time.
The match was filled with plenty of mistakes by both Americans, who each have claimed one major championship. They combined for 101 unforced errors and just 40 winners across more than two hours under a closed roof at Court Philippe-Chatrier on a drizzly, chilly day.
Gauff is now 4-0 in her French Open career when losing the first set and winning the second set. That ties her with Elina Svitolina for the most such wins without a loss since 2019, according to ESPN Research.
She also became the youngest woman to claim 25 main-draw wins at Roland Garros since Martina Hingis (1995-2000).
