Coco Gauff has broken her silence regarding a controversy involving Jessica Pegula and Mirra Andreeva at the WTA Finals, according to reports. The issue emerged after Gauff's victory over Pegula at the Cincinnati Open earlier in the season.
Details of the specific incident and Pegula's reported apology were not disclosed in the initial announcement. Gauff, the reigning US Open champion, and Pegula, a top-ranked American doubles specialist, have frequently partnered together for the United States in team competitions.
The WTA Finals, the season-ending championship for the women's tour, features the top eight singles players and doubles teams. Andreeva, a rising Russian teenager, qualified for the event following a breakthrough season.
