Coco Gauff, a young American player, faced Jelena Ostapenko in the top 8 women’s singles at the US Open today (6th) and won 6-0, 6-2 to advance. The official website of the US Open reported that 19-year-old Coco Gauff became the first American teenager player to advance to the semi-finals of the US Open women’s singles following Serena Williams.

Coco Gauff is the 6th seed this time, while Jelena Ostapenko from Latvia is the 20th seed. Jelena Ostapenko defeated top seed Iga Swiatek of Poland 3-6, 6-3, 6-1 in the last round.

Previously, following Serena Williams, Coco Gauff was the first American teenage player to reach the top 8 of the US Open for two consecutive years. Now, she has become the first American teenage player to reach the top 4 of the US Open since Serena Williams in 2001.

“It’s great to be mentioned together with Serena Williams.” Coco Gauff said that Serena Williams is a great player, and he is still some distance away from his idol Serena Williams, but it is an honor to be mentioned together.

Coco Gauff is currently on a 10-game winning streak, her career high. Coco Gauff’s next opponent is the winner between Sorana Cirstea and Karolina Muchova.
