Aryna Sabalenka has apologized to Coco Gauff for her post-match comments following the French Open final. Sabalenka, who made 70 unforced errors, initially attributed Gauff's victory to her own mistakes.

For most of the contest, Aryna Sabalenka sulked, pouted, and yelled at her coach from the court as Coco Gauff stoically and calmly outplayed the world's top-ranked women's player. "It feels great," Gauff told fellow American tennis player Sloane Stephens.
