Coco Gauff and Jessica Pegula are set to clash in the Wuhan Open final, with Pegula leading their head-to-head record 4-2.
Coco Gauff, the World No.3, has earned her place in the final after overcoming Jasmine Paolini, while Jessica Pegula stunned tournament favorite Aryna Sabalenka in the semi-finals, coming from a set down to beat the Belarusian star.
Pegula's win over Sabalenka was her first against the World No.1 after four consecutive losses on tour and her first of the season.
Should Pegula win the Wuhan Open, she will cement her spot at the WTA Finals in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Meanwhile, Coco Gauff is looking to win her second title of the season and has been working on her serve issues, a major concern for her this year.
