Match Preview
The promising 17-year-old Coco Gauff of USA will be up against Germany’s Angelique Kerber in round 4 of Wimbledon 2021. The latter is coming on the back of wins over Sasnovich, Sorribes Tormo and Stojanovic. Notably, she had won the grass-court WTA tennis tournament Bad Homburg Open earlier this month. Kerber has won three grand slams, including Wimbledon 2018.
Angelique Kerber, the 2018 Wimbledon champion, is now on an eight-match winning streak and has won 9 of her last 10 Wimbledon matches.
But she has played some lengthy matches in the past fortnight. Coco Gauff is almost as defensively gifted as Kerber, is comfortable playing on Centre Court and comes into the match much fresher.
This will be the first meeting between Coco Gauff and Angelique Kerber.
Coco Gauff Form
Coco Gauff has continued to rise since her breakthrough run at Wimbledon in 2019, when she came through qualifying to reach the last 16. Still just 17, Gauff is 31-11 in 2021, making semifinals in Adelaide and Rome, winning her second career WTA title in Parma and reaching the quarterfinals of the French Open.
Gauff suffered a bit of a surprising collapse in that quarterfinal against Barbora Krejcikova, but she has bounced back well. She played two tough matches in Eastbourne, beating Elise Mertens and losing to Anastasija Sevastova.
So far at Wimbledon Gauff has not dropped a set in wins over Great Britain’s Francesca Jones, former semifinalist Elena Vesnina and Kaja Juvan. Her last two matches have been on Centre Court, where she will play on Monday against Kerber.
Angelique Kerber Stats
Former champion Angelique Kerber is now on an eight-match winning streak, after having won last week’s Bad Homburg title and reached the fourth round at Wimbledon.
Neither achievement came easy. Kerber battled through two three-set matches last week in Bad Homburg, and after a routine opening round win over Nina Stojanovic at Wimbledon, she played for 3 hours and 19 minutes against Sara Sorribes-Tormo.
Kerber is supremely fit but she is also 33. She had to go the distance again in the third round, trailing Aliaksandra Sasnovich 1-5 before the match was interrupted by a rain delay. On the resumption Sasnovich only won two more games as Kerber recorded a 2-6 6-0 6-1 victory.
