 Serena Williams at 17-year-old reached the feat in the 1999 US open while the Gauff became the youngest American woman to reach the final of a Grand Slam tournament.

The 18-year-old Coco Gauff claimed a 6-3, 6-1 win in a match in which both the players were featuring in a semi-final for the first time.

Coco Gauff will face world number one Iga Swiatek for the French Open title after Gauff eased into her maiden Grand Slam final with a straight-sets victory over Martina Trevisan.

"I think I'm a little bit in shock right now. I didn't know how to react after the match. I'm lost for words," said Gauff after the match.
