Coco Gauff is through to another semifinal on the Asian swing, beating Laura Siegemund to progress to the last four of the Wuhan Open. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Gauff called Siegemund \u2018tricky\u2019<\/a> after thrashing her in next to no time, winning 6-3, 6-0 to set up a second successive semifinal after reaching the same stage in the China Open last week. <\/p>\n

\n

Already this week, Gauff has made some history<\/a> and now she would like to make some more by claiming this particular title for the first time. <\/p>\n

Gauff has been defended this week<\/a>, with some so-called experts claiming she needs to start working on her forehand a little bit more. <\/p>\n

Giving advice to Gauff<\/a> appears to be trendy among pundits and former players on the circuit, but after this win over Siegemund, she deserves some credit for something which took place in the match. <\/p>\n

Coco Gauff deserves praise after first point disaster vs Siegemund<\/h2>\n

Every tennis player is always keen to rattle through the first service game without their opponent getting a foothold from the receiving end. <\/p>\n

Gauff has been criticised for her serve in the past and against Siegemund, she hardly got off to the best possible start in that sense. <\/p>\n

Gauff went and served a double fault during the first point of the match and went and lost her serve by losing the very first game of the match. <\/p>\n

Instinctively, something stayed calm in Gauff\u2019s head, however, and she went and broke straight back to restore parity and throw the pressure straight back onto Siegemund. <\/p>\n

This mental resilience is great to see at the moment from Gauff and given how she\u2019s struggled with an erratic service in the past, she deserves enormous credit. <\/p>\n

Gauff can win the Wuhan Open<\/h2>\n

It feels like Gauff and Aryna Sabalenka<\/a> are on course to meet for the first time since their French Open<\/a> final earlier this year. <\/p>\n

Sabalenka has won every match she\u2019s played at this tournament and is looking to win a fourth successive title at the event. <\/p>\n

Gauff wouldn\u2019t be fazed by coming up against the world number one and if anything, she would relish that sort of challenge. <\/p>\n

First, the player must come through against Jasmine Paolini, who is one of the form players after her win over Iga Swiatek<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Gauff will fancy her chances, though, and with this newfound mental resilience, it should serve her well as she looks to win more titles. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
