    Aus Open: Gauff Battles Past Bencic To Set Up Quarterfinal Clash With Badosa

    Rod Laver Arena: No.3 seed Coco Gauff had to come from behind to reach the Australian Open quarterfinals on Sunday, with a gritty 5-7, 6-2, 6-1 win over new mom Belinda Bencic at Rod Laver Arena.

    Gauff lost her first set of the season in her Round-of-16 match against Switzerland's 2021 Olympic gold medallist Bencic. However, the American made a strong recovery, completing a 2-hour and 26-minute comeback to extend her 2025 win-loss record to 9-0.

    She also became the first woman to post back-to-back 9-0 starts to a season since Victoria Azarenka in 2012-2013. The 20-year-old Gauff is also the youngest woman to pull off that feat since Monica Seles in 1992-1993, according to WTA.
