Paris – Paris (AP) – Gotera of coconut Exceeded 10 fouls and the first set that has fallen into the tournament to win Madison Keys 6-7 (6), 6-4, 6-1 in the France open On Wednesday, arriving at the semifinals for the third time.
It was a contest full of many errors of both Americans, who each one has claimed an important championship. They combined for 101 undined errors and only 40 winners in more than two hours under a closed ceiling in Court Philippe-Champatrier in a dried and cold day.
The sowing Goalfe of the No. 2 He won the Open of US 2023 and was the runner -up at the France Open 2022. He will play on Thursday for a position in another Grand Slam final, facing No. 6 Andreeva mixture or the entrance of the 361 -year -old French wild card Loïs Boisson.
“I have much more work to do,” said Gobef, who raised his arms over his head and then separated them after the last point against the keys, “but I’m going to savor this today.”
It began particularly bad against the keys, following 4-1 and being a point of a 5-1 deficit. Gonff leaned his head or sighed after some mistakes. Then, suddenly, he launched, using his speed and instincts to stretch the points until Keys, the Australian Open champion in January, was lost.
That helped Gualf get to a point of taking that set. But the 21 -year -old Florida headquarters expired three times in the tiebreaker, and soon went to the locker room to regroup.
That set was careless. Gonff had seven winners to 21 undined errors. Keys has 12 winners of 28 non -forced errors, 19 of which arrived from his powerful right.
“I knew that I just had to be able to run today and as soon as the ball fell short,” Gasff said, “just punish it for it.”
Repeatedly, the base hastened in this way or that so that its racket of a photo of the keys that against many other players would end the point. And often, it worked well, which led to a fault of Keys, which occasionally admonished with a slap on the right leg.
“With his ability to cover the court,” Keys said, “you will have to win the point several times before it really ends.”
