American teenager Coco Gauff reached her first US Open singles final by beating Karolina Muchova in a semi-final disrupted by climate protesters.

Gauff wrapped up a 6-4 7-5 win over Muchova and will face second seed Aryna Sabalenka in Saturday's final.

Four protesters chanting for the end of fossil fuels had interrupted the Gauff-Muchova match for 49 minutes.

One man glued his feet to the floor on Arthur Ashe Stadium with some chants of "kick them out" towards the protesters.

91Èȱ¬ tennis correspondent Russell Fuller and former tennis player Annabel Croft were watching and explain the situation to Sport Today’s Isaac Fanin and the impact it would have had on the players.
