JAKARTA The defending champion of Coco Gauff beat Eva Lys by reaching the semifinals of the China Open 2025, which is the third semifinal in a row in the tournament.
It took the world's third-ranked tennis player an hour and 28 minutes to beat his opponent from Germany with a score of 6-3 and 6-4 on Thursday, October 2, 2025.
"I'm happy with the way I play. Lys is a tough opponent and he did some incredible hits, but I tried my best," said Gauff.
The 21-year-old US tennis player recorded an impressive first service percentage of 78 percent throughout the match.

Servis is actually one of the difficulties that Gauff has always faced in this season's calendar. However, that percentage shows he can already solve the problem.
"I think I remain confident in my game (it's important). Not too passive when leading, I only played passively in the last game, but after that I played tennis well," he said.
Gauff, who was eliminated in the first round of Wimbledon after winning the French Open, is now the highest-ranked player left in the tournament.
He next in the semifinals will face his compatriot from the United States, Amanda Anisimova, who is runner-up at Wimbledon and US Open 2025.
The anomaly, the second seed, came from behind a set to beat Italy's Jasmine Paolini 6-7 (4-7), 6-3, and 6-4 to play in the sixth semifinals this year.
