With the one-sided cheering of the home court fans, the atmosphere clearly shifted towards Goff.

With Sabalenka leading 4-1 in the third set, he complained of pain in his left inner thigh muscle and called a medical timeout, but his flow did not change much after that.

After scoring the championship point with a passing shot, Gauff lay down on the court and shed tears of emotion.

In the decisive third set, Sabalenka showed a cool attitude, making 16 unforced errors while recording only 2.
