BEIJING — One year ago, Coco Gauff bested Karolina Muchova in the final of the Cincinnati Open final to win the first WTA 1000 title of her career.
Can the 20-year-old American repeat the feat at the China Open on Sunday to win her second WTA 1000 title?
Or will a resurgent Muchova get her revenge by knocking off her third Top 10 player of the week to capture the biggest title of her career?
Here’s what you need to know about the penultimate WTA 1000 final of the 2024 Hologic WTA Tour season:
When is the singles final?
The singles and doubles finals will both take place on Sunday, Oct. 6.
Championship Sunday will kick off at 4:30 p.m. with the doubles final, followed by the singles final at 7:00 p.m.Unseeded in Beijing, Muchova moved into the main draw after World No.1 Iga Swiatek withdrew. Coming off a run to the US Open semifinals last month, Muchova has been clinical in Beijing to make her second career WTA 1000 final. She has lost just one set, defeating Anna Blinkova, Yuan Yue, Jaqueline Cristian, Cristina Bucsa, top seed Aryna Sabalenka, and No.7 Zheng Qinwen in the semifinals. This is the first time the Czech has beaten two Top 10 players in a tournament since her run to the Cincinnati final last summer.
