The 15-year-old US sensation who made the fourth round at Wimbledon in July was routed 6-3, 6-0 by 21-year-old Japanese world number one Osaka on Saturday, her tears after the loss prompting Osaka to entice her to stay on court and speak to the crowd. “I didn't think all these people would be here,” Gauff said. “They were sold out and so supportive. I think that definitely helped us, especially when the pressure moments came.”“I was still a little bit mad at the match,” she said. “I was still crying.”
