PARIS, June 4 (Reuters) - Coco Gauff huffed and puffed into the French Open semi-finals with a 6-7(6) 6-4 6-1 victory against fellow American Madison Keys in a match both players will be quick to forget as they broke the 100-unforced errors barrier on Wednesday.
More than half of Gauff's points came from Australian Open champion Keys' soft mistakes and the world No. 2 got away with a total of 10 double faults.
The 21-year-old will need to make dramatic adjustments when she faces either France's Lois Boisson or Russian sixth seed Mirra Andreeva for a place in Sunday's final.
Keys, who was looking to reach the last four at Roland Garros for the second time after 2018, bowed out with her 60th unforced error to end a forgettable contest.
"I'm happy to get through this match today, I have a lot more work to do, I'll be ready tomorrow," Gauff said.
