A sensation in Montreal! The WTA runner-up is on the men's shoulder blades.
Coco Gauff sensationally exited this year's WTA tournament in Montreal in the fourth round. Victoria Mboko, ranked 85th in the world, outperformed the runner-up.
Before the match began, Gauff was the clear favorite. Many experts and fans believed the American player would easily defeat the lower-ranked opponent. Their surprise was all the greater after what transpired on the court in Canada.

Mboko dominated the match from the outset. The Canadian broke her opponent in the first game. Gauff was unable to stop the 18-year-old, who was playing brilliantly that day, losing the first set 1-6. The second set also didn't go the American's way. Although this part of the match was much more competitive, Mboko ultimately triumphed 6-4, securing her place in the next round in 63 minutes.
The Canadian's next opponent will be Spain's Jessica Bouzas Maneiro. Will Mboko cause another sensation and secure a spot in the semifinals of the event in Montreal?
