Gauff vs Kostyuk preview

The prodigy tag weighs heavier on some shoulders than others, and it's easy to forget that before Coco Gauff, there was Marta Kostyuk. The Ukrainian had the world at her feet when she stormed to the third round here as a 15-year-old in 2018, but the pressure of expectation hit hard and before long, Gauff's meteoric rise had made her yesterday's news.

Under the radar, however, the 21-year-old has crept up the rankings, and having lost her previous 14 encounters with top-10 opponents, she's now won three of her last four meetings with the game's top talents. Gauff should consider herself warned.

The 19-year-old sailed through the first four rounds, winning every match in straight sets and spending less than five hours on court. However, she's enjoyed as favourable a draw as she could possibly have wished for, with world No.40 Alycia Parks the highest ranked of her opponents so far.

By contrast, world No.37 Kostyuk is battle-hardened, having come through a trio of three-setters before dismantling Maria Timofeeva in barely an hour, and she may feel like she has a point to prove against Gauff. They went the distance in their only previous encounter, with the American eventually coming out on top, and there ae high hopes that this clash will be just as closely contested.
