Coco Gauff’s second Wimbledon ended much like her first – with a fourth-round loss to one of the tournament favorites.
The difference this time is that the 17-year-old American felt she’s on the verge of going much further in a major.
”I just feel like I’m close,” Gauff said after losing to 2018 Wimbledon champion Angelique Kerber 6-4, 6-4 on Centre Court. ”Always competitive in these matches against these top players.”
It was at Wimbledon that Gauff made a whirlwind breakthrough at age 15 in 2019, becoming the youngest woman to qualify for the grass-court Grand Slam and then taking out Venus Williams en route to the fourth round.
