`WUHAN, China (Reuters): Holder Aryna Sabalenka fought back from a first-set stumble to beat Coco Gauff 1-6 6-4 6-4 in the Wuhan Open semi-finals, as double faults proved to be the American’s undoing on Saturday, while China’s Zheng Qinwen overcame compatriot Wang Xinyu.

The 20-year-old Gauff, who has made some grip changes with new Coach Matt Daly, committed 21 double faults as top seed Sabalenka, who struggled against the world number four’s power earlier in the match, swung the momentum in her favour.
