Coco Gauff, the 15-year-old tennis phenom, has done it again! On Thursday, she defeated Mirra Andreeva 6-4, 6-3 in the second round of the US Open to advance to the third round.
Gauff, who is the youngest player in the tournament, was in complete control throughout the match. She was able to take advantage of Andreeva’s weak backhand and used her powerful forehand to dominate the court. Gauff’s serve was also on point, as she won 87% of her first serve points.
The victory was especially impressive considering that Andreeva is ranked No. 86 in the world and is a veteran on the tour. Gauff, on the other hand, is still relatively new to the professional circuit and is currently ranked No. 140.
Gauff’s win is a testament to her hard work and dedication to the sport. She has been training hard since she was a young girl and has been making waves on the professional circuit since she burst onto the scene last year.
Gauff’s win is also a great example of what can be achieved with hard work and determination. She has shown that age is just a number and that anything is possible with enough dedication and effort.
Gauff will now face off against Anastasia Potapova in the third round of the US Open. With her win over Andreeva, Gauff has already made history by becoming the youngest player to reach the third round of a Grand Slam tournament since Jennifer Capriati in 1991. It will be interesting to see how far she can go in this tournament.
