Coco Gauff acknowledged Iga Swiatek is “one of the best players in the world for a reason” and highlighted that she is preparing “for everything” when he meets the Pole. On Saturday, Gauff and Swiatek will clash against each other in the Beijing semifinal.

After Swiatek won the first seven meetings against Gauff in straight sets, the American finally clinched her first win over the Pole when she beat the four-time Grand Slam champion 7-6 (2) 3-6 6-4 in the Cincinnati semifinal. “Everybody who plays her, no matter the game style, you have to be prepared to run and just be ready for everything.

She’s in the position she is for a reason, she’s one of the best players in the world for a reason, and I’m just going to go out there and hopefully do a similar result to Cincinnati. If not, I’m really proud of the way that I’ve been doing to get to the semi-finals so far,” Gauff said of facing Swiatek.
