Coco Gauff, 15, crashes out in tears at Australian Open
Coco Gauff's bid for history at the Australian Open ended in tears in the last 16 on Sunday as the 15-year-old crashed out in three sets to fellow American Sofia Kenin.
The 14th seed Kenin recovered from a set down to win convincingly 6-7 (5/7), 6-3, 6-0 and Gauff left the court crying.
Kenin plays Tunisia's unseeded Ons Jabeur after she defeated China's Wang Qiang to become the first Arab woman to reach a Grand Slam quarter-final.
"I just did the best I can. I just tried to take it like any other match," said Kenin, who also had tears in her eyes afterwards.
"I know she's (Gauff) playing well, I just tried to play my game and fight for every point and just not focus on anything else."
