REUTERS: Coco Gauff has vowed to improve her decision-making on crucial points in future, after losing 7-6 6-3 to 33rd-ranked Czech Barbora Krejcikova in the French Open quarter-finals on Wednesday despite having the upper hand.

"She played well in the pressure points. She also redirected the ball really well, kind of making me make mistakes. I knew she was going to play very smart tennis and play the high-percentage plays" Gauff told reporters. "That's not kind of how I want to play tennis, I always want to play first-strike tennis. So that's something I'll work on."Gauff said the loss in what was her first Grand Slam quarter-final would be"on my mind for a couple days" but she is already looking ahead to Wimbledon, where she had a dream run to the last-16 in 2019.
