In a post-match interview, Gauff shared her thoughts on making it to the final.

"Yeah my first final here [in 2022] I was super nervous, and I kind of wrote myself off before the match even happened. Obviously, here I have a lot more confidence just from playing a Grand Slam Final before and doing well in one. I think going into Saturday, I'll just give it my best shot, try to be as calm and relaxed as possible and yeah whatever happens, happens. And knowing that I put the best foot and effort forward."

Coco Gauff also made it to the French Open final in 2022, where she was defeated by Iga Świątek. She will be looking to win the final this time around.
