THE ESSENTIAL
Caroline Garcia faces Cori Gauff this Tuesday evening in the quarter-finals of the US Open (1:00 a.m. French time)
Victorious in Cincinnati two weeks ago and impressive since the start of the tournament, the Frenchwoman is in the form of her life today.
To reach the first semi-final of her career in New York, she will have to resist the pressure of the 23,000 spectators of the Arthur-Ashe court, who will push behind Gauff.
5:30 p.m.: The challenges
The challenge is immense, but for the past few weeks, nothing seems to have scared Caroline Garcia.
The Lyonnaise, on fire since June (30 wins in her last 32 games, titled in Bad Homburg, Warsaw and Cincinnati), is currently playing at a level she had never reached, not even when she had climbed up to 4th place in the world in 2018. Full of confidence, with a strong physique that allows her to play the offensive tennis she loves, Garcia is aiming for a first semi-final at the US Open this evening.
To do this, it will be necessary to pass over the body of Coco Gauff, under the immense pressure of the 23,000 spectators of the Arthur-Ashe court, who will obviously only have eyes (and voice) for the American.
"It's going to be explosive!", imagined the Frenchwoman on Sunday evening after her victory in 8th.
> Because Caro deserves to watch a little (a lot), we meet around 1:00 a.m. (French time) to experience this match together...
