Having been a point away from taking the first set at Roland Garros, Coco Gauff had to watch the contest slip away from her, eventually succumbing to a 7-6(7) 6-2 upset defeat on Court Philippe-Chatrier.
Coco Gauff reacts as a call goes against her at the Paris Olympics. Coco Gauff looked to be cruising against Donna Vekić in her third-round singles match at the Paris Olympics. Then, all of a sudden, she wasn't.
The supervisor also came onto the court and the ensuing debate lasted five minutes, with Gauff wiping tears away from her eyes. Boos and jeers came from the crowd when play was eventually resumed. The match was firmly in the Croatian's control from that point, and she closed out the contest to set up a quarterfinal meeting with either Greece's Maria Sakkari or Ukraine's Marta Kostyuk.
As the set wore on, Vekić played the shot of the match at that point, pushing a smash back past her opponent. But Gauff responded in similar fashion the following game, returning a Vekić smash with a well-timed backhand while her opponent was stranded at the net. The dispute with the umpire in the second set, Gauff later explained, didn't alter the result of the match.
