Coco Gauff thought she won her doubles match with Jessica Pegula when she won a game at 4-1 😂 It happens to the best of us. ❤️
America’s young tennis star Coco Gauff hilariously thought that she won the US Open doubles match with just a score at 4-1.
The 19-year-old is one of the most highly-rated young players in the circuit and is one of the favourites to lift the title at the fourth and final Grand Slam of the year which is currently being played in New York.
Gauff is also participating in the doubles and mixed doubles category in the mega-event. In the doubles category, she is partnering with Jessica Pegula.
The duo was facing Elizabeth Mandlik and Quinn Gleason in the first round but Gauff thought that they won the match when they were just 4-1, prompting a hilarious response from her partner as well as from the crowd sitting in the arena.
Gauff and Pegula went on to win the match in straight sets with a score of 6-2, 6-1 on Wednesday and they are now set to face Spain’s Cristina Bucsa and Alexandra Panova in the second round on Friday.
In the singles category, Gauff has already secured her place in the third round after beating Russia’s young tennis sensation Mirra Andreeva in straight sets with a score of 6-3, 6-2.
She is now set to face Belgium’s Elise Mertens in the third-round fixture on Friday as well.
