Gauff won women's singles QF match against her American compatriot Madison Keys 6(6)-7(8), 6-4, 6-1 but her win was more challenging than it looks on the scorecard.
21-year-old Coco Gauff won her women's singles quarter-final match in French Open 2025 against Madison Keys on Wednesday (June 4) to book a place in semis and with that created some history as well. The win was Gauff's 25th victory on the clay court of Roland Garros - making her the youngest player to reach the milestone since Martina Hingis did it in the year 2000.
Gauff won the match against her American compatriot Madison Keys 6(6)-7(8), 6-4, 6-1 but her win was more challenging than it looks on the scorecard.
The 21-year-old was down 1-4 in the first set when she made a comeback to make it 4-5 but it was not her time yet as she lost the set in the tie-breaker. Gauff then doubled down hard and won the next two sets with relative comfort to enter the semis.
She had previously played in the final at Roland Garros in 2022 before winning her maiden grand slam title next year at US Open 2023.
"I think just a love to win, the will to win," Gauff said after the match when asked why she is comfortable coming from behind.
