Luis Diaz 'proud of everything' achieved at Liverpool after joining Bayern Munich
Bayern Munich have completed the signing of Luis Diaz from Liverpool with the Colombia international penning a four-year contract with the German champions.
The 21-year-old American was particularly ruthless in the opening stages with the first set only lasting 29 minutes where she dropped just five points across the first five games.
Alexandrova couldn't muster the high-powered consistency she showed during the first week of the tournament for long enough in the second even though she put up more of a fight.
Gauff, who is a finalist at Roland Garros from 2022 and a semifinalist last year, cantered to her fourth straight-sets win at the Grand Slam.
She came into the major in good form on clay, having made the final of the Madrid Open and the Italian Open in Rome, losing to the world number one Aryna Sabalenka in Spain and home favourite Jasmine Paolini respectively.
Gauff will now face the winner of the match between fellow Americans Madison Keys and Hailey Baptiste, one a Grand Slam champion and veteran and the other making her first appearance in the second week of a Grand Slam.
