With the win, Gauff secured her third title in the WTA 1000 level, and her second big title of the season after the French Open. It also marked her maiden win at the Wuhan Open, following up on a semifinal finish at the China Open before that.
As the Chinese swing finishes in such strong fashion for the World No. 3, she took to social media to give fans a glimpse into her mindset. Going on Instagram live, Gauff and her team put on a show for all to say, singing along to Jaden Smith’s song and also showing off their hilarious dance moves on the side. Gauff in particular was the loudest, confidently belting out the lyrics and enjoying herself after one of the biggest wins of her career.
