Gauff and Sabalenka to Clash in Miami Open Final

American Coco Gauff dominated Karolina Muchova, winning 6-1 6-1, to advance to the Miami Open final. Gauff's victory was her first straight-sets win in the tournament, with the home favorite hitting her stride in the competition's late stages. 'It feels great to be at home,' Gauff said. 'Today, I found a good balance of mixing it up.' Meanwhile, defending champion Aryna Sabalenka secured her spot in the final with a 6-4 6-3 win over Elena Rybakina. Sabalenka took advantage of Rybakina's errors to win the opening set and then pulled ahead 4-0 in the second. Rybakina attempted a comeback but Sabalenka closed out the match for a comfortable win. 'I really enjoy our rivalry,' Sabalenka said. 'I did everything right, and she played great, but I pushed her a lot.' The stage is set for a thrilling final between Gauff and Sabalenka, who will meet for the 13th time in their careers. The pair has split their previous 12 meetings, with Gauff winning their most recent encounter at the French Open and Sabalenka emerging victorious at the WTA Finals.
