The United States Tennis Association said four people were removed from the stadium by NYPD officers, including one who had glued their shoes to the ground at Arthur Ashe Stadium. The delay took nearly an hour.<\/p>\n<p>The 19-year-old tennis phenom won the match in straight sets to become the youngest American to advance to the title match since Serena Williams. She was asked in the post-match press conference.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><u>CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think that throughout history moments like this are definitely defining moments. I believe in climate change,&#8221; Gauff explained. &#8220;I don\u2019t know exactly what they were protesting. I know it was about the environment. I 100% believe in that. I think there\u2019s things that we can do better. I know the tournaments are doing things to do better for the environment.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Would I prefer it not happening in my match, 100% yeah I\u2019m not gonna sit here and lie but you know it is what it is,&#8221; she added while smiling.<\/p>\n<p>Gauff said she had a feeling something would happen again given that climate protests occurred in the other Grand Slam tournaments over the course of the year.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I had a feeling it was going to happen in this tournament. It happened in the French Open. It happened n Wimbledon. Following the trend, it was definitely gonna happen here. I was hoping it wasn\u2019t in match. Honestly, I thought we made it through. It is what it is,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/end-fossil-fuels-protesters-disrupt-us-open-semifinal-match-demonstrator-glues-shoes-ground\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>&#8216;END FOSSIL FUELS&#8217; PROTESTERS DISRUPT US OPEN SEMIFINAL MATCH; DEMONSTRATOR GLUES SHOES TO GROUND<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think that moments like this are history-defining moments and like I said, I\u2019d prefer it not to happen in my match but I wasn\u2019t p&#8212;ed at the protesters. I know the stadium was because it interrupted entertainment but I always speak about preaching about what you feel and what you believe in and it was done in a peaceful way so I can\u2019t get too mad (about) it. Obviously, I don\u2019t want it to happen when I\u2019m up 6-4, 1-0 and I wanted the momentum to keep going. But hey, if that\u2019s what they felt like they needed to do to get their voices heard, I can\u2019t really get upset at it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gauff will take on Aryna Sabalenka in the US Open final on Saturday night.<\/p>\n<p>The climate group <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/climate-group-takes-responsibility-us-open-chaos-offers-warning-no-tennis-dead-planet\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Extinction Rebellion took responsibility<\/a> for the protest. The group\u2019s New York chapter released a statement saying there is &#8220;no tennis on a dead planet.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Today\u2019s action highlights the neglect of the climate and ecological breakdown by governments and corporations,&#8221; the group said. &#8220;The group emphasizes that the present socio-economic system can&#8217;t protect people from the crises to come, because its very structure creates these crises and then ignores them.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The extremely short-term incentives of our key institutions \u2014 corporations and governments, which respectively function on quarterly profits and periodic elections, disregard the long-term dangers to our survival. This system is committed to stealing from future generations to sustain a lifestyle that primarily benefits the few (the so-called \u2018one percent\u2019).&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Extinction Rebellion added that the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/us\/environment\/climate-change\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">&#8220;climate and ecological crisis<\/a>\u00a0threatens everything on our planet, including sports&#8221; and pointed to players\u2019 recent issues with the excessive heat plaguing the tournament.<\/p>\n<p>The group said the Biden administration\u2019s actions to combat climate change were not enough and demanded that &#8220;the government tell the truth by declaring a climate and ecological emergency, and halt biodiversity loss and reduce greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by 2025.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/coco-gauff-says-she-prefers-if-climate-protest-didnt-happen-during-her-match\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/coco-gauff-says-she-prefers-if-climate-protest-didnt-happen-during-her-match <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Coco Gauff said she was not upset at the protesters who disrupted her US Open semifinals match against Karolina Muchova Thursday night, but she just [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":{"twitter_2902945987_2902945987":""},"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","footnotes":""},"categories":[16563],"tags":[],"stock_ticker":[],"class_list":["post-78625","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-market-news","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
