Gauff speaks ahead of facing Osaka in repeat of famous US Open clash: "I think I'll be less nervous this time"

It was one that went viral all over the world due to the post match interview but having that match under her belt against her, she believes she will react better to the situation.

The 15-year old added that she has employed a mindset that is nothing to lose so puts herself under less pressure to win as a result.

“I think I'll be less nervous this time,” she said. “At the US Open I was nervous. It was my first time on Ashe.

“For sure I’ll be more confident because I’ve felt her ball before.

“We're both familiar with each other's games. She plays really aggressive. This time coming in I'm going to be more aggressive.”

“I think in general my mindset has always been nothing to lose really,” she said. “Even when I was in juniors, even though I was ranked pretty high and I was technically supposed to win, I still felt like I had nothing to lose.

“I still feel that now. I think my mindset just is I'm going to fight. If I lose, the world is not going to end. I'm going to have another match in maybe a week or so.

“I think it's just less pressure to win. I feel like for me, I'm not trying to win so much but trying to play my best tennis on the court. Winning comes with that if I play good.”
