Gauff is still a teenager but has found her place among the best players in the world.

Pera has a solid season, but she will not be able to challenge Gauff, and the World No. 7 will win this one in straight sets.

Gauff is the type of player who plays hard from the opening point, and that will give her a huge advantage in this match.
