Coco Gauff has 'nothing to lose' against Iga Swiatek in French Open final

Coco Gauff says she has "nothing to lose" in Saturday's French Open final against world number one Iga Swiatek, with her opponent on a 34-match winning streak and looking for a second Roland Garros title. Teenage star Gauff is the youngest Grand Slam finalist since Maria Sharapova at Wimbledon 18 years ago and only graduated from high school while in Paris. The 18-year-old has yet to drop a set in the tournament and showed little signs of nerves in her first major semi-final with a 6-3, 6-1 win over Martina Trevisan.

Iga Swiatek to face Coco Gauff in French Open final

Coco Gauff, 18, the youngest finalist at Roland Garros in two decades, whose striking sensibleness puts her sunshine smile to shade, will take on the rampaging world No.1 Iga Swiatek for the Coupe Suzanne Lenglen.

Gauff, who had 14 winners in her 98-minute 6-3, 6-1last-four win over Italian Martina Trevisan, however, struck her firmest blow on Court Philippe Chatrier during her on-court interaction, reminding fans yet again that she was more than a tennis sensation.
