"It means a lot. Thank you for staying up late, I don't know what time it is. Facing Zheng Qinwen of Sabalenka, who knocked out the Belarusian world ball, the 21-year-old Gauff showed tenacious fighting spirit and amazing endurance, and after a tug-of-war in the deciding set, he overcame 3:5 behind and forced to tie 7 again, and won the key 2 points from 5:4 in a row, and won the thrilling battle for 3 hours and 32 minutes, Gauff roared to celebrate winning the long battle, "I just tried to tell myself: 'Leave everything there.'" I'm proud to have done it. And hopes to become the first American female player after the Roma seal since Serena Williams in 2016.
