Coco Gauff Advances in US Open After Comeback

Coco Gauff advanced to the fourth round of the US Open, overcoming a shaky start to defeat Elina Svitolina 3-6, 6-3, 6-3. Gauff, who had lost five consecutive matches to players in the top 50, recognized the need for a 'reset' after losing the first set and successfully regrouped. She displayed resilience by winning nine out of 11 games in the second and third sets, ultimately securing the match despite a tense finish. This victory marks Gauff's 17th win at the US Open, tying her with legends Maria Sharapova and Serena Williams for the most wins at the tournament this century by a player under 21. Gauff will next face Emma Navarro, who previously defeated her at Wimbledon. Meanwhile, defending champion Novak Djokovic was eliminated by Alexei Popyrin, who will face Frances Tiafoe in the next round.
