19-year-old Coco Gauff is set to make history in the U.S. Open women's title match on Saturday, joining other Black American tennis icons like Serena Williams and Venus Williams. Gauff expressed her support for the climate change protest that disrupted her semifinal match, and is now hoping to be the latest Black American woman to leave a history-making mark on the most sacred grounds of U.S. tennis. She'll face the U.S. Open's No. 2 seed, Aryna Sabalenka of Belarus, in the Grand Slam season's last women's title match.
