The American duo defeated their fellow countrywomen Madison Keys and Taylor Townsend 6-4, 7-6 (7-4) in Friday’s semifinal to move on to Sunday’s championship match.

Last year, Barbora Krejcikova became just the seventh woman ever, and the first since 2000, to win the singles and doubles titles in Paris.
Gauff and Pegula will take on French team Caroline Garcia and Kristina Mladenovic, who beat Lyudmyla Kichenok and Jelena Ostapenko in three sets (2-6, 6-4, 6-2) in the other semifinal.
