Eastbourne International: Coco Gauff thrashes Jodie Burrage to reach quarter-finals

World number seven Coco Gauff thrashed Britain's Jodie Burrage to reach the quarter-finals of the Eastbourne International.

American Gauff proved a step up in class for Burrage as she overpowered her 6-1 6-1 in exactly an hour.

Burrage lost 10 games in a row against the excellent Gauff before breaking the American as she served for the match.

However, Gauff recovered quickly to secure victory and her place in the last 16.

Gauff will face either doubles partner and world number three Jessica Pegula or Colombia's Camila Osorio next.

"Jodie has had a couple of good weeks on grass and hopefully she can have a good time at Wimbledon," Gauff, 19, said on BBC Two.
