The American player needed to work on her game, and she did, taking inspiration from her idol. Gauff copied a particular part of Serena Williams' training routine, which helped her enter the quarterfinal in the Italian Open. Gauff beat Paula Badosa, who recently started improving, in the 16, 5-7, 6-4, 6-1 round. While there are still some signs of trouble in her game, she has vastly improved her return on serves, as she converted 50% of receiving points against Badosa. In the post-match presser, she talked about how she improved her returns.
