“Coco is such a talented young player, she has such a great future in-front of her,” Kerber says in her on-court interview.
“I really enjoy my time here, it’s so great to play in-front of you guys again, it gives me the energy to play my best tennis. Every single match that I win here is a win, I’m just trying to savour the moment.”
Coco Gauff 4-6 4-6 Angelique Kerber: Three match points and Kerber needs just one, rocketing down an ace to knock Coco Gauff out and progress to the quarter-finals. The 2018 Champion looks back to her best and is a genuine contender to win the whole thing in this sort of form.
Coco Gauff 4-6 4-5 Angelique Kerber: That’s superb from Gauff. She holds and takes a seat for the change of ends, grabbing a few grapes for a boost of energy and staring off into the distance in focus. One break of a serve is all she needs to keep this match alive.

Coco Gauff 4-6 2-4 Angelique Kerber: You’ve got to give it to Kerber, she’s kept her head here and is now just two games away from a Wimbledon quarter-final. This is the sort of match where momentum can change so easily, but she’s keeping her focus.
Coco Gauff 4-6 2-3 Angelique Kerber: Gauff holds and it’s greeted by a huge cheer from the Centre Court crowd. They want more of this.

Coco Gauff 4-6 Angelique Kerber: The German takes the first set in 32 minutes. That was a breathless half an hour of tennis, more of the same please

Coco Gauff 3-5 Angelique Kerber: The two players have settled and Kerber holds for a second time.
Coco Gauff 3-4 Angelique Kerber: You wait forever for a service hold and then two come along at once. That’s more like it from Coco, who has been ruthless on her first serve throughout this tournament so far. In fact, a handy stat is that over 50% of her first serves don’t come back. That’s a position you want to be in, particularly in a long Grand Slam.
