Teen sensation Coco Gauff’s fairytale has ended at the ongoing Australian open as she was beaten 6-7 6-0 by Sofia Kenin.
Sofia Kenin has now reached the quarter-final of the competition for the first time in her career.
The 15-year-old Gauff, earlier beat defending champion Naomi Osaka and seven-times Grand Slam winner Venus Williams.
Novak Djokovic has continued his imperious progress through the Australian Open draw.
Djokovic negotiated a potentially tricky encounter with Diego Schwartzman 6-3 6-4 6-4 to reach the last eight at Melbourne Park for the 11th time.
The defending champion broke for 5-3 and served out for the opening set before grabbing early breaks in the next two stanzas and successfully resisting Schwartzman’s attempts to get back on terms.
