But based on today's result, it appears that the 17-year-old has learned her lesson and stepped up her game.

Coco Gauff vs Katerina Siniakova recap

Coco Gauff in action at the 2022 Adelaide International 2

Both players started off quite well, though it was Siniakova who was the stronger competitor in the first few games. But with the score tied at 1-1, Gauff went on a roll. She won the next five games to clinch the opening set 6-1.

Siniakova, however, did have her chances in the first set. She took the teenager to deuce twice during the fifth game, but couldn't take advantage. The American continued her momentum in the second set as well, quickly racing to a 4-0 lead. By this point, she had won nine games in a row.

Siniakova finally managed to get on the board with a love service hold, but it was too little too late. The duo held their serve over the next three games and Gauff closed out the match on her first match point, winning 6-1, 6-2.

The 17-year-old's next opponent, Marta Kostyuk, is quickly moving up the ranks. But even though the Ukrainian made her debut before Gauff, the American has achieved more success on the WTA tour and will head into the match as the favorite.
