Coco Gauff storms into First Miami Final
Coco Gauff ran through Karolina Muchova 6–1, 6–1 at the Miami Open 2026 to reach her first final in Miami.
After a week of long, good matches, Gauff produced her most straightforward performance when it mattered most.
She’s now: 6–0 against Muchova, into her first Miami Open final and into her 6th WTA 1000 final.
She came into this tournament off an injury and a retirement at Indian Wells. No expectations. Just trying to feel good on court again.
Now she’s in the final.
After the match, she said:
“I’m super excited to be in the final of this tournament.” “Like I’ve said the whole week, I didn’t expect to be here . I’m really happy.” “I’ve just been trying to find the joy in the sport.” “Through the battles I was having fun.”“It’s nice to get through in 2 sets today.”
She becomes the youngest American woman to reach the Miami final since Serena Williams (2003) and will move up to World No. 3, overtaking Iga Swiatek.
