Madrid Open 2025: Coco Gauff’s Projected Path to the Final Includes Potential Showdowns with Mirra Andreeva and Iga Swiatek
Coco Gauff heads into the 2025 Madrid Open as the fourth seed, with a challenging draw that could see her face rising stars and top-tier opponents on her road to the final.
After a strong showing in recent tournaments, Gauff is poised for another deep run. Her campaign in Madrid is set to begin in the second round, where she could face either Ukraine’s Dayana Yastremska or a qualifier.
In the third round, Gauff may clash with 2021 US Open finalist Leylah Fernandez, a player she’s had tight battles with in the past. The fourth round could bring a potential matchup against one of several dangerous players: Beatriz Haddad Maia, Clara Tauson, or Belinda Bencic—all capable of pushing Gauff to the limit.
A projected quarterfinal against teenage sensation Mirra Andreeva or the crafty Karolina Muchova would mark a critical test of Gauff’s form. And if she advances, a potential semifinal against World No. 1 Iga Swiatek or big-hitting American Madison Keys could await her—a repeat of their previous battles on clay.
If Gauff navigates through the draw, she might face defending champion Aryna Sabalenka in a blockbuster final.
The path won’t be easy, but Gauff has proven time and again that she thrives under pressure. Madrid may be the stage where she makes another statement ahead of Roland Garros.
