Defending champion Aryna Sabalenka raced into the Australian Open quarter-finals while Coco Gauff recovered from a set down to defeat Belinda Bencic. Sabalenka had been pushed in her two previous matches by Jessica Bouzas Maneiro and Clara Tauson, but she was ruthless against 17-year-old Mirra Andreeva.

While Coco Gauff's consecutive-set winning streak ended at the Australian Open, her bid for a second Grand Slam title continued Sunday with a 5-7, 6-2, 6-1 comeback victory over Belinda Bencic in the fourth round.

Coco Gauff moved into the fourth round at Melbourne Park with a straightforward victory over Leylah Fernandez.
