The last Grand Slam of the season continues today with the Women's Finals, where American tennis star No. 6 Coco Gauff will face off against No. 2 Aryna Sabalenka. Gauff heads into the match fresh off her Semifinals victory over Karolina Muchova in straight sets. The 19-year-old is having a momentous summer — she's 16-1 since Wimbledon, and will play her very first US Open Singles Final today, with a very real chance of winning her first career Grand Slam. The 19-year-old American is the youngest US Open finalist since Serena Williams in 2001.

Sabalenka overcame a slow start to defeat No. 19 Madison Keys in her Semifinals match, pulling off one of the biggest comebacks of her career, and squashing any hope of an All American US Open Final. The Belarusian player has been the tournament favorite since the upset of No. 1 seed and defending champ Iga Swiatek's defeat early on in the Grand Slam.

The match between the No. 2 and No. 6 seeds is sure to be an exciting one. Here’s how you can catch the Gauff vs. Sabalenka match, plus the rest of the action on the court during the 2023 US Open.
