Coco Gauff's remarkable run at the Australian Open 2020 prompted fans to wonder if the teenage prodigy could indeed create more history, but the giant-killer's winning spree came to a grinding halt at the hands of another gifted American who is now on the verge of making it to her first Grand Slam semi-final.
Sofia Kenin began her Australian Open campaign well getting past Martina Trevisan, Ann Li and Shuai Shang in straight sets before dropping the first set against Coco Gauff who looked to be in fine touch during the initial stages of the fourth-round encounter.
Gauff came out on top in a closely-contested first set but Kenin rallied strongly to gradually overpower and finally demolish her younger opponent giving the audience a glimpse of her remarkable resilience.
The 6-7, 6-3, 6-0 scoreline against a player who had accounted for Venus Williams and Naomi Osaka was reflective of the 21-year-old's form ahead of the last-eight clash where she faces a 25-year-old Tunisian who appears to be in fine fettle herself.
Ons Jabeur got past Johanna Konta and Caroline Garcia in straight sets before upsetting 2018 champion Caroline Wozniacki in the third round. Jabeur did drop a set against Wozniacki but veered past Qiang Wang and looked to be in majestic touch in the third set against the Chinese who had shocked Serena Williams.
Although the Tunisian has failed to get past the Russian-born fourteenth-seed in three previous meetings, a battle royale in on the cards at the Rod Laver Arena, but Kenin has the edge in the day-session quarter-final on Day 9.
