Czech Marie Bouzkova: Top seed Coco Gauff fought back from a set and a break down to notch a 4-6, 7-5, 6-2 victory over Veronika Kudermetova and reach the Round of 16 for the fifth consecutive edition of Canadian Open.

The 21-year-old Gauff is also the youngest player to register 10 career match-wins at this tournament since Justine Henin in 2003.

Gauff saw a 4-1 first-set lead slip away, and at 4-4, 40-15, the American lost five of the next eight points with double faults. Kudermetova took advantage, firing strong groundstroke winners from both wings as she wrapped up the set.
