MELBOURNE - Crowd favorite Coco Gauff’s giant-killing run at the Australian Open came to an end on Sunday as the American teen bowed out in the fourth round after a 6-7 6-3 6-0 defeat to compatriot Sofia Kenin.
With the majority of the packed Melbourne Arena crowd egging her on, Gauff showed the hype was not misplaced with strong serves mixed with booming groundstrokes that often left her compatriot rooted to the spot. That approach paid dividends, as while Gauff hit 39 winners to Kenin’s 28 the 15-year-old had 26 more unforced errors.
Gauff had problems with her ball toss throughout the match, incurring seven double faults and managing to get just 56% of her first serves in while facing 12 breakpoints.
