Coco Gauff has won the French Open at long last.

The tennis superstar, 21, bested No. 1 ranked Aryna Sabalenka on Saturday, June 7. Gauff lost the first set 6-7 but rallied to win the next two sets 6-2 and 6-4, respectively. The duo previously met in the 2023 World Open, which Gauff also won.

The match was the first to feature a No. 1 and No. 2 seeded player in Paris since Serena Williams and Maria Sharapova faced off in 2013.

Gauff shared two photos in her Instagram Story that offered glimpses into her tournament determination. One was a photo of her hand holding a piece of paper that reads, “I will win French Open 2025” several times. Gauff explained, “Ignore my handwriting but i saw @gabbythomas do this. Had to do the same lol.”
