Get ready for Coco Gauff vs. Naomi Osaka at the US Open. It’s been 6 years since their first matchup
August 30, 2025
Coco Gauff and Naomi Osaka have set up a high-profile showdown between two past title winners in the U.S. Open’s fourth round. Their meeting Monday, with a quarterfinal berth at stake, is a rematch from 2019, when Gauff was a 15-year-old making her main-draw debut at Flushing Meadows. Osaka won that one and consoled a teary Gauff on the sideline. Osaka advanced to her first fourth-round match at any major since the 2021 Australian Open by eliminating No. 15 seed Daria Kasatkina 6-0, 4-6, 6-3 on Saturday. Gauff made it that far at the U.S. Open for the fourth consecutive year with a 6-3, 6-1 victory over No. 28 Magdalena Frech.
