Coco Gauff advanced to her maiden Wimbledon semi-final, overcoming Jessica Pegula in a hard-fought three-set match. Gauff, the seventh seed, lost the opening set but rallied to win 4-6, 6-3, 6-3. This victory marks Gauff's deepest run at the All England Club, having never previously progressed beyond the fourth round.

Gauff's performance was characterized by resilience, recovering from a shaky start that included four double faults and 17 unforced errors in the first set. She becomes the first woman in 30 years to reach the singles semi-finals with four three-set wins. The 2023 US Open champion's ability to fight back from deficits, particularly in the second set, proved decisive.

The loss is a setback for Pegula, the highest-ranked player remaining in the draw, who failed to capitalize on early opportunities in the second set. Gauff will face either Naomi Osaka or Karolina Muchova for a place in the final, continuing her quest for a third Grand Slam singles title.
