After Coco Gauff was accused of attempting to disqualify one of her opponents from the WTA Finals, Serena Williams’ former coach sprang to her defense.

The 20-year-old finished with a 2-1 record in her group-stage matches before winning the season-ending titles last weekend. Her one setback occurred when she had control over Iga Swiatek’s destiny.

Swiatek would have advanced out of the group as well if Gauff had defeated Barbora Krecjickova. Additionally, some supporters claimed that the American intentionally tanked.
