Coco Gauff begins her 2026 US Open campaign with a first-round matchup against Zeynep Sonmez.
Coco Gauff enters New York in strong form as the No. 4 seed. In her most recent events, she reached the semifinals at both Wimbledon and the National Bank Open in Canada, before winning the Cincinnati Open.
Zeynep Sonmez represents a different challenge. She has yet to advance beyond the third round at a Grand Slam, and facing Gauff will be the ultimate test.
The 24-year-old has steadily climbed the rankings and enters the matchup ranked No. 53, while her hard-court game has produced two of her career titles.
Zeynep Sonmez and Coco Gauff will face each other for the first time in the first-round of the 2026 US Open.
