As the teenager defeated Andrea Petkovic of Germany 6-4 6-4 at the semi-final of the Linz Open coco Gauff is through to her maiden WTA final.
Even the 15-year-old becomes the youngest female to achieve a final.
But she just got after a injury to former Wimbledon winner Angelique Kerber.
This is insane, I thought I was out of the tournament at qualifying, explained the American.
Before she secured victory in her second match point currently rated 110th, Gauff showed real determination to save nine from their 10 break things she faced.
In the closing on Sunday, the woman from Florida will perform with either French Open winner Jelena Ostapenko of Russias or even Lativa Ekaterina Alexandrova.
