In tennis, life can come at you fast, as we used to say. Over the past two months, Gauff and Andreeva have essentially switched places in the Roland Garros pecking order. Now it’s Coco who looks calm and purposeful, and it’s Andreeva who bashed a ball out into the upper deck in raging frustration today.

Coco Gauff secured a notable victory against Mirra Andreeva 6-4, 7-6 (4) and became the first semifinalist of the Rome Open. The world No. 3 came out on top of a tight match and returns to the semifinals of a WTA 1000 event.
