BEIJING—World number six Coco Gauff dominated unseeded Czech Karolina Muchova to win the China Open final 6–1, 6–3 on Sunday and become the first player to win each of their first seven WTA hardcourt finals in the Open Era.
Gauff fired off 24 winners in a strong performance to add the Beijing trophy to her win in the Auckland Classic this year and win the second WTA 1000 title of her career after her 2023 victory in Cincinnati, where she also beat Muchova in the final.
