Noskova dismantles Gauff to reach WTA Finals last four

Linda Noskova became the first player to reach the WTA Finals semi-finals after securing a dominant 6-3 6-3 straight-sets victory over Coco Gauff.

The 21-year-old is yet to drop a set at the WTA Finals, underlining her excellent form as she continues to enjoy an outstanding season.

She has now advanced with her two wins, while Gauff and Jessica Pegula sit on one win and one loss in Group One.

After suffering two defeats, Kostyuk has been eliminated from the tournament. The Ukrainian replaced world No 1 Elena Rybakina, who was forced to withdraw due to illness.

Pegula, meanwhile, bounced back from her defeat to Gauff to keep her hopes of reaching the WTA Finals semi-finals alive with a 6-2 7-5 victory over Kostyuk.

Pegula made an explosive start, breaking the Ukrainian in the opening game before securing a second break to comfortably take the first set 6-2.

Kostyuk offered greater resistance in the second set, putting Pegula under more pressure, but the American struck with a crucial late break before serving out the match to seal a straight-sets victory.
