Five places in the world rankings and ten years separate them, but Caroline Garcia and Coco Gauff are both living their first quarter-finals at the US Open. Tuesday, September 6, only one of the two players will validate her ticket for the semi-finals.
For the American, finalist of the last Roland-Garros, who is ranked 12th in the world, it’s time to take another step in the succession of Serena Williams, who undoubtedly played her last career match this year at New York. The former world No. 1 junior has already beaten twice, in two confrontations, the French on the circuit.
But World No. 17 Caroline Garcia is in sparkling form and her win at the WTA 1000 in Cincinnati saw her continue a 12-game winning streak. For her second career quarter-final in a Major, Caroline Garcia wants to finally discover the last four, and thus cross the milestone that her opponent had crossed at Roland-Garros last June.
