Coco Gauff was utterly dominant as she dispatched defending champion Iga Świątek 6-1, 6-1 in just 64 minutes to reach the Madrid Open final, handing the five-time grand slam champion one of the worst defeats of her career.

It was Świątek's worst loss on clay since 2019. She must now regroup for the Italian Open in Rome, where she is the defending champion.

Gauff destroyed Swiatek with only two lost games in Madrid but Simona Halep once recorded an even more dominant win against the Pole on clay.
