Coco Gauff reaches first grand slam quarter-final after win at French Open

• The 17-year-old American defeated Ons Jabeur 6-3, 6-1
• Gauff will play Czech Republic's Barbora Krejcikova in last eight

Coco Gauff's rise on the red clay continues. With an efficient and deeply impressive performance at Roland Garros, the 17-year-old American produced one of the best big-match showings of her young career, defeating Ons Jabeur 6-3, 6-1 in just 53 minutes to reach her first grand slam quarter-final.

Gauff had arrived in Paris in some of her best form to date and prime for a breakthrough with the correct draw. After reaching her first WTA 1000 semi-final in Rome last month, albeit with help from the retirement of Ashleigh Barty during their match, she won her second WTA title in Parma a week before the French Open. Her win-loss record over the clay season now stands at 16-3 (84%).
