NEW YORK — Coco Gauff had an easy start to her U.S. Open title defense, rolling to a 6-2, 6-0 victory over Varvara Gracheva on Monday.
Zheng Qinwen, the Olympic gold medalist in women’s tennis, stayed in the tournament by rallying for a 4-6, 6-4, 6-2 victory over Amanda Anisimova. But the No. 7 seed from China solved Anisimova's power as the match went on to move into the second round as she turns her attention back to the Grand Slams after becoming China's first singles gold medalist at the Paris Olympics.
“I had this experience already, so this time when I had success in the Olympic Games, to come to the next tournament, I say, everything starts at zero. You are not anymore the Olympic champion. Just be humble and try to work, fight every single match, because if you don’t fight, you have a big chance to lose.”
