15-year-old teenage sensation Coco Gauff clinched her first WTA title on Sunday beating Jelena Ostapenko 6-3, 1-6, 6-2 in the final in Linz. With this win, Gauff became the youngest player to win a WTA event since Czech Nicole Vaidisova, who won in Vancouver and Tashkent two months apart in 2004. She is also the youngest American to win a WTA trophy since Jennifer Capriati in Toronto in 1991, nearly 3 decades ago.
