La adolescente canadiense Victoria Mboko sorprendió y venció el sábado por 6-1, 6-4 a la primera cabeza de serie Coco Gauff, para alcanzar los cuartos de final

This time last year, Mboko was ranked outside the top 300. Now, the 18-year-old Canadian is into the quarterfinals of her home tournament.

Mboko opened with a win over 79th-ranked Kimberly Birrell, then upset 23rd seed and former Grand Slam champion Sofia Kenin before snapping Marie Bouzkova’s seven-match winning streak with a relentless comeback and taking down Gauff, dropping one set the whole way.
