Pegula and Gauff blow off singles steam in emphatic win in doubles

Jessica Pegula and Coco Gauff might have lost in the singles but they are going really strong in the doubles beating Chan and Yang 6-1 6-1.

It was a superb match by the doubles team and a very aggressive one. It almost seemed like they were blowing off steam from losing the singles in a way because the power with which they played was palpable. Dominant from start to finish, Gauff and Pegula blasted 30 winners in 14 games of play.

That's an incredible stat line, even more so when you add that they only had 9 unforced errors. They only dropped 5 points on their serve in the entire match, and look like a very good candidate to make the final. The second seeds will face Shibahara and Aoyama in the semi-final and they will be heavily favoured to win that one as well.
