Wimbledon 2024: 2nd seed Coco Gauff crashes out in straight-sets loss to Emma Navarro

Hindustan Times  

Nothing, absolutely nothing, worked for Coco Gauff on Sunday. The killer shots and the champion's mentality Gauff had meticulously curated during her run to a maiden Grand Slam title at the U.S. Open last year all went AWOL as her hopes of reaching the Wimbledon quarter-finals for the first time were brutally ended with a 6-4 6-3 mauling by Emma Navarro. Gauff was also the only player - man or woman - to make the semi-finals or better at the last three slams When the draw put second seed Gauff on a fourth-round collision course with fellow American Navarro, it almost seemed like a foregone conclusion which player would emerge triumphant. With Gauff having admitted that she had found herself in "a dark place" following her shock first-round exit here 12 months ago, Gilbert stood up in the player's box and tried to calm down the world number two with some hand gestures and words of wisdom but with Navarro's game on fire, nothing made a difference. A breathtaking forehand into the corner handed Navarro the first set and after breaking for a 3-1 lead in the second, thanks to yet another Gauff double fault followed by a forehand error - there seemed no way back for the second seed.
