WTA Finals Preview: Coco Gauff, Zheng Qinwen face off for first year-end crown in Riyadh
Zheng and Gauff have played once, on clay in Rome this spring, and Gauff won 7-6 (4), 6-1. Both women have been successful on clay and hard courts, so the surface switch for this match may not mean much. A faster court may speed up Zheng’s attack, but it may also add some zip to Gauff’s counterpunches.
