    The French Open: Second seed Coco Gauff of the United States opened her title defense at the China Open tennis tournament with a commanding 6-4, 6-0 win over Russia's Kamilla Rakhimova on Friday.

    The 21-year-old American, currently ranked world No. 3, pulled away after a tight first set to complete the victory in one hour and 42 minutes in the joint WTA and ATP event being played in the Chinese capital..

    "I expected it to be close," said Gauff. "She's a great player and has had competitive results with top players in the last few tournaments. I was just a little bit tight at the beginning, but I was able to loosen up and get in a flow."
