Coco Gauff overcomes Amanda Anisimova to reach semi-finals in Parma
Coco Gauff won the battle of the American teenagers with a 6-3 6-3 victory over Amanda Anisimova to reach the semi-finals of the Emilia-Romagna Open.
Gauff, 17, a semi-finalist in Italy last week, dispatched her 19-year-old compatriot in an hour and 20 minutes.
