BEIJING -- Coco Gauff won her second title this season with a lopsided 6-1, 6-3 victory over Karolina Muchova in the final of the China Open on Sunday.
The sixth-ranked Gauff, 20, became the youngest China Open champion in 14 years. She is also the second American champion in Beijing, following Serena Williams' title runs in 2004 and 2013.
It was Gauff's eighth career title. She improved her record in tour finals to 8-1 and has a 7-0 record in hard-court finals.
Gauff wasted no time and took the opening set in just 31 minutes. She dropped just five points on her first serve and broke Muchova five times.
