<\/p>\n

Coco Gauff won the battle of the teenagers in Flushing Meadows as she needed just an hour and 15 minutes to dispatch Mirra Andreeva 6-3 6-2. The combined age of both women contesting the second-round match was just 35 – younger than the likes of Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray. And it was Gauff who kept the hopes of a home champion alive at the US Open.<\/p>\n

Gauff and Andreeva were facing off for the second time after the teenagers met in the third round of the French Open back in June. And the Russian admitted she would be trying to get revenge over the 19-year-old, having lost that match in Paris.<\/p>\n

Andreeva seemed to stick to her word early on in the clash as she broke the home hope in the first game but it didn\u2019t last as Gauff was able to break straight back. The sixth seed went on a tear, winning four games in a row as she broke the world No 63 for a second time.<\/p>\n

The 16-year-old had to save a set point on her serve at 2-5 but she couldn\u2019t get back in it as Gauff eventually closed out the opener 6-3 in 37 minutes, firing down 10 winners to just three from Andreeva.<\/p>\n

The sixth seed had a tough time in her opening-round match on Monday night, coming back from a set down against Laura Siegemund after complaining about the German\u2019s slow speed between points. But there were no issues for Gauff today as the American played lights-out tennis, securing a break in the second set to lead 2-1.<\/p>\n

Andreeva refused to go down without a fight, as she had two chances to break straight back in the next game but Gauff stayed calm and executed her game plan in the important moments, saving both break points to keep her lead. And the 19-year-old proved relentless, breaking the Russian for the fourth time to serve for the match.<\/p>\n

And the world No 6 closed out a straight-set victory with ease, dropping just five games – an improvement on their last match after going three sets in Paris.<\/p>\n

Gauff will now face either fellow American Danielle Collins or 32nd seed Elise Mertens in the third round on Friday. The world No 6 has never faced Collins but she has a 2-0 lifetime record against Mertens, including a win at last year\u2019s French Open.<\/p>\n

The match also marks Andreeva\u2019s earliest defeat at a Grand Slam in her young career. The Russian star made the third round of the French Open and the fourth round at Wimbledon, losing to Gauff and Madison Keys respectively. But she will still take home some ranking points from her first-round win after making her US Open debut this year.<\/p>\n
