Coco Gauff has achieved an impressive 10 consecutive victorious matches at the Auckland tournament!
American teenager Coco Gauff has pulled off a remarkable feat! She successfully secured her Auckland Classic title, making a stunning comeback from a set down to defeat her opponent, Elina Svitolina.
The young tennis sensation and US Open champion triumphed in a terrific 6-7 (4-7) 6-3 6-3 victory, further solidifying her dominance. Gauff has now emerged victorious in 29 of her past 33 singles matches, which is truly remarkable and solidifies her status as one of the game’s brightest talents.
Elsewhere, Elena Rybakina has claimed the Brisbane International title with a dominant straight-set win over Aryna Sabalenka, an impressive achievement in her own right!
Congratulations to all the champions of these esteemed tournaments, and best of luck to the contenders gearing up for the Australian Open!
The Australian Open, the first Grand Slam of the year, starts in Melbourne on 14 January.
Qualifying for the tournament begins on Sunday, with Harriet Dart and Heather Watson among eight British players aiming to join Katie Boulter, Jodie Burrage, Emma Raducanu, Cameron Norrie, Dan Evans, Andy Murray and Jack Draper in the main draw. It’s essential to keep an eye on these talented names and see how they perform!
Lastly, I’d like to extend my heartfelt best wishes to Liam Broady and his recovery after being sidelined from the tournament due to unforeseen circumstances. We’re rooting for you, Liam!
