Coco Gauff’s return to home soil this summer was meant to be a triumphant one but on the iconic grass of Wimbledon, it was Dayana Yastremska who stole the spotlight.
In a clash filled with tension and fire, Dayana delivered a ruthless second set performance, leaving Gauff struggling to find rhythm. If dominance needed a new definition, Dayana’s display certainly provided one clean, commanding, and completely unrelenting.
As one fan humorously put it in Nigerian pidgin:
“Ĺàĥoʻ o (Abeg o), muah solemnly and steadily continue to dey waka come in absolute 💯 peace o 🍁.”
Gauff’s summer may still shine bright in the US, but in London today, it was Dayana’s moment bold, brilliant, and beautifully brutal.
