The flag bearer of the American delegation alongside the basketball player LeBron James in these 2024 Olympics, Coco Gauff experienced a nightmare on Tuesday July 30 during his match with Croatian Donna Vekic in the round of 16 of the singles tournament. Tennis player, seed number 2, lost in two sets (7-6 [7], 6-2), after leading 4-1 and 5-3 with set points in his favor during the first round. Pushed into the tie break, the American also won two set points but was unable to convert them, unlike Vekic. Excited by the character, Coco Gauff fell during the second round, next to himself after the controversial point, to the point of letting go and ending the game with tears in his eyes. Contender for individual Olympic gold, he is the only one with mixed doubles left with Taylor Fritz.
