Gauff, Trevisan enter maiden Grand Slam semi-finals

Coco Gauff reached her first Grand Slam semi-final at the French Open when she defeated Sloane Stephens

Coco Gauff reached her first Grand Slam semi-final at the French Open on Tuesday when she defeated fellow American Sloane Stephens. Gauff, 18 years old and ranked 23 in the world, triumphed 7-5, 6-2. 

She will face Italy’s 59th-ranked Martina Trevisan for a place in Saturday’s championship match. 

Victory avenged her defeat to Stephens at the US Open and helped erase the memory of her quarter-final defeat last year to eventual champion Barbora Krejcikova in Paris. 

Meanwhile, Italy’s Trevisan reached her first Grand Slam semi-final with 6-2, 6-7 (3/7), 6-3 victory over Canada’s Leylah Fernandez.
