Wimbledon No.2 Coco Gauff upset by Dayana Yastremska

Coco Gauff, the world No. 2 and reigning French Open champion, suffered a major upset at Wimbledon 2025 when she was eliminated in the first round by Ukraine's Dayana Yastremska in straight sets, 7-6(3), 6-1. Gauff struggled with her serve, committing nine double faults, and made 29 unforced errors, which contributed to her early exit despite having won two Grand Slam titles recently. Yastremska, ranked No. 42, played confidently and seized the opportunity, marking her second career win over a top 2 player and her first since 2019. Despite the upset, Yastremska praised Gauff, describing their relationship as very good and expressing gratitude for playing on Wimbledon's prestigious courts. Gauff's loss continues a troubling pattern at Wimbledon, where she has lost in the first round twice in the last three years, making her just the third woman in the Open era to lose at Wimbledon immediately after winning the French Open. This result was part of a broader trend during the tournament, as other top seeds also suffered early exits.
