The Washington Open is coming to an end today with both the men's and the women's finals being played tonight. Before that, the semi-finals and final will take place at the Prague Open.

22:10 CET - Coco Gauff (19) is the champion in Washington! The American clinched her fourth overall title but the biggest one of her career: her first-ever WTA 500 event. On home soil, she dispatched of a weary-looking Maria Sakkari (28) 6-2, 6-3, and will now be full of confidence heading into the WTA 1000 events.

On her way to the title, she beat three top 20 ranked players - without dropping a set. Her forehand has been a real liability over the last 12 months, but the shot looked really secure this week, with new coach Brad Gilbert in the stands. Good signs for the teen.

19:48 CET - Unfortunately the rain has won again in Prague. Today's play has been postponed with Nao Hibino (28) leading Jaqueline Cristian (25) 6-4, 6-7(2), 5-2 and will resume tomorrow. It's been a chaotic few days for the players.

14:52 CET - We are meant to have two semi-finals and a final at the Livesport Prague Open today after rain played spoilsport yesterday. Linda Noskova (18) came out and just sealed a thumping 6-1, 6-1 win Tamara Korpatsch (28) to reach the final, but the weather has hit once more, and the other semi is currently on hold.

14:49 CET - With all but one of the men's matches done today, our ATP Flashmoment is a jaw-dropping passing shot from Alex De Minaur (24) on the turn, after being lobbed by Stefanos Tsitsipas. Great stuff.
