At one point during the first set of her fourth round match, it looked like the fairy tale was going to continue for Coco Gauff as she had multiple break points against former World No. 1 Simon Halep, but alas it wasn’t to be.
The 15-yr-old has won millions of fans around the world with her grit, determination, humility and humour and no matter what else happens, she is the star of this year’s Championships.
