Coco Gauff will step into the semifinal of the Beijing WTA for the second consecutive year, but not before struggling against Yulia Starodubtseva. The American did not feel comfortable in the first set, being outplayed by the Ukrainian and failing to score a single winner. However, that was enough to make her react and end up winning by 2-6 6-2 6-2. Gauff will need to improve for the semis, where she will face Paula Badosa, a player having more than excellent weeks in terms of tennis and physical performance. Let's see if Gauff can learn from this match in preparation for the tough match that lies ahead.
