The reigning champion faced early challenges as she stepped onto the grand stage of Arthur Ashe Stadium, illuminated by bright floodlights on a hot Queens night. Across the net stood Tatjana Maria, a 37-year-old renowned for her remarkable run to the Wimbledon semifinals two years ago.

In the opening set, Gauff encountered trouble when she dropped one of her service Games, generally served poorly, and allowed her German counterpart to secure an early break.

Despite this setback, she displayed a difference in quality and fought her way to a hard-fought first-set 6-4 victory. The second set flowed more smoothly for Gauff as she claimed victory in every Game, establishing her dominance and securing the win.
