Honored Coach of the Russian Federation Victor Yanchuk commented on the defeat of Mirra Andreeva by Coco Gauff in the quarterfinals of the WTA 1000 tournament in Rome (4/6, 6/7(5)).
“It`s a disappointing defeat, and although Mirra lost in two sets, the match was even. Gauff was a bit sharper and slightly luckier. Mirra could have won the tiebreak, she missed many opportunities, and who knows how the match would have ended if it had reached a decisive set. In any case, this is valuable experience, and for a top-ten world ranking player, the quarterfinals are a good result,” TASS quoted Yanchuk as saying.
