Upbeat Gauff and Andreeva Sweep into French Open Quarter-Finals
Hindustan Times Patna
|June 03, 2025
Coco Gauff reached a fifth straight French Open quarter-final and was joined in the last eight by Russian teenager Mirra Andreeva, with Jannik Sinner and Novak Djokovic also seeking last-eight spots Monday.
PARIS:
World number two Gauff brushed Russian 20th seed Ekaterina Alexandrova aside 6-0, 7-5 to step up her pursuit of a first Roland Garros crown, and second Grand Slam title.
"It was tough. The whole match I think I played well to be honest," said Gauff, a losing finalist in Paris in 2022.
Former US Open champion Gauff will play reigning Australian Open champion Madison Keys or unseeded Hailey Baptiste in an all-American quarter-final.
Sixth seed Andreeva also moved through in straight sets as she cut short an attempted fightback by hitting partner and ex-compatriot Daria Kasatkina to advance 6-3, 7-5. Kasatkina, ranked 17, is now playing for Australia after switching allegiance from her native Russia.
"It was a hell of a match," said Andreeva. "Honestly I'm so so happy I won, I hate playing against her, we practice a lot and even practice is a torture for me."
