Coco Gauff advanced to the fourth round of the French Open for the first time at Roland Garros to continue her brilliant form on the clay this season.
This came though due to the unfortunate retirement for Jennifer Brady who decided to call it a day after losing the first set 6-1.
The 17-year-old was full of well wishes for her compatriot post match with hope that she can get back on court going into Wimbledon.
"It's unfortunate because I have known Jenny very well, and she's such a nice person," Gauff told the press. "If you ask every player on tour, no one is going to say anything bad about her because she's always laughing and joking around. So I just hope that by the time Wimbledon comes she'll be healed up and ready to compete at 100 percent again."
Next up is Ons Jabeur and the recent Parma winner knows what to expect from the tie going into it on Monday.
"I played her, I think, twice now. This will be my third time. Obviously she's a difficult player to play on any surface, but especially clay," Gauff continued.
"I have to be ready to run a lot. We all know she loves dropshots and doesn't really give you much of a rhythm.
"I think I just have to be ready for anything with her."
