Defending champion Naomi Osaka overwhelmed tennis prodigy Coco Gauff to advance to the US Open fourth round by winning the most buzzed-about match of the tournament in front of a captivated Arthur Ashe Stadium on Saturday night, but it was the love and support we witnessed after the match that gave a lesson in sportsmanship and compassion.
The world No.1 Osaka comfortably progressed in 65 minutes, as Gauff got just 45% of her first serves in, while winning just 42% of points on her first serve and 30% on her second.
