Looking stunning in her beige Nike Slam Melbourne Tank and Skirt, fifth seed Elina Svitolina advanced to the third round of the 2021 Australian Open with a straightforward 6-4 6-3 win over Coco Gauff. Experience made the difference here, as the 16-year-old Gauff got tight in crucial moments.
We can say that Gauff was overall a better player in her Thursday’s second-round match, but Svitolina took charge when it counted, while the youngest player in this year’s main draw got nervous and made unforced errors.
