American tennis player Coco Gauff advanced to the fourth round at Wimbledon, defeating fellow American Claire Liu 6-3, 6-7(5), 6-2. Gauff, the seventh seed, is a former U.S. Open and French Open champion.
Gauff’s Road to the Fourth Round
Gauff, 22, arrived at Wimbledon under pressure to improve her modest grasscourt record. She eased through the opening set against Liu but struggled in the second set, where Liu saved three match points and forced a tiebreak.
Gauff regained her rhythm in the decider, breaking Liu in the opening game and building a 5-2 lead. She will face Swiss 11th seed Belinda Bencic in the fourth round.
