Top seed Coco Gauff crashed out of the Berlin Open with a 7-5 7-6(2) defeat by fellow American Jessica Pegula in the semi-finals on Sunday. The match was suspended on Saturday due to rain, with world number five Pegula leading 7-5 6-6(3-1) and wasting no time after the match resumed on Sunday by winning four of the last five points to reach her first grasscourt final.
