Coco Gauff will take on Elise Mertens in the third round of the 2023 US Open on Friday.

Teen star Coco Gauff will face off against Elise Mertens in the third round of the 2023 US Open on Friday.

Gauff was up against fellow teenager Mirra Andreeva in the second round. The two had previously battled it out at the French Open earlier this year, with the American needing three sets to prevail.

Andreeva started off strong this time as well by breaking Gauff's serve in the very first game of the match. However, the World No. 7 swept the next four games to race ahead and soon captured the opening set.

The second set was one-way traffic in Gauff's direction and she won the match 6-3, 6-2. She then took to the court once again for her doubles tie with Jessica Pegula, with the duo defeating Elizabeth Mandlik and Quinn Gleeson 6-2, 6-1.


Where is Coco Gauff playing?

She's currently competing in the US Open, the season's final Major as well as her home Grand Slam. The teenager made it to the quarterfinals in singles last year, her best showing at the tournament so far. She also made it to the title round in doubles a couple of years ago.

Up against 2022 Australian Open finalist Danielle Collins in the second round, Mertens saved a couple of match points in the second set tie-break. She would then go on to win the match 3-6, 7-6 (7), 6-1.

Mertens is a two-time US Open quarterfinalist in singles, having reached the stage in 2019 and 2020. She also won the doubles title here in 2019 alongside Aryna Sabalenka.
