Coco Gauff reduced to tears in heartbreaking scenes at French Open
The 18-year-old Gauff was no match for the World No.1 on Saturday, but could hold her head high after a remarkable run into the Roland Garros final.
Nevertheless, the teenager was still gutted about her performance in the decider and was reduced to tears while sitting at her courtside seat after the match.
Gauff buried her head in her towel and was consoled by tournament director Amalie Mauresmo, before composing herself for the post-match presentation.
However the tears flowed once again as she thanked her supporters in her runner-up speech.
“The past couple months have truly been amazing and you totally deserve it,” Gauff told her 21-year-old opponent.
“Hopefully we can play each other in more finals, and maybe I can get a win on you one of these days!”
