She added a grey pleated mini skirt and tan knee-high boots. Pegula wore a brown-and-ochre outfit with a cropped jacket and a matching knee-length skirt. The look was completed with a light blue button-down shirt and black heels. Sabalenka wore a red top and jacket paired with a black leather skirt. She finished her look with a stack of jewelry, red socks, and black pointed stilettos.

Coco Gauff takes pride in herself after earning a spot at the WTA Finals for the fifth consecutive time
Coco Gauff will make her fifth consecutive appearance at the WTA Finals, held in Indian Wells, California, from November 8 to November 15, 2026. She made her debut at the Championships in 2022 and won the title after defeating Zheng Qinwen in the 2024 final. In amedia day interview in California, Gauff said she takes pride in reaching the WTA Finals for five consecutive years. She felt a sense of achievement in having remained among the world’s top eight players consistently.
“I’m usually a ‘what’s next’ type of person, but definitely [being] here five times in a row is something to be proud of because [I’m] consistently being among the top eight players of the world for some time now. I definitely think that’s an accomplishment. When you’re in it, you don’t really realize how big of a deal it is,” Gauff said.
Gauff will face Jessica Pegula in her opening round at Indian Wells. She has been drawn alongside Elena Rybakina, Jessica Pegula, and Linda Noskova.
