Coco Gauff says she needs to maintain her focus throughout her US Open fourth-round tie against Emma Navarro after a shock defeat by her at Wimbledon.
Defending champion Coco Gauff says she needs to maintain her focus throughout her US Open fourth-round tie against Emma Navarro on Sunday after mentally 'collapsing' during her shock defeat by her at Wimbledon."I feel like that match at Wimbledon I think I mentally just literally collapsed on the court. I was very frustrated, and she played well," Gauff said.
"I have to expect her to play her best tennis and I just need to know that I need to bring it and mentally be there from the beginning to the end." Gauff, 20, is bidding to become the first woman to defend her US Open title since Serena Williams in 2014, while 23-year-old Navarro - the 13th seed - will be hoping to reach the quarter-finals at Flushing Meadows for the first time.
