Eastbourne International: Gauff thrashes Burrage, while Ostapenko beats Dart to reach last 16

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, who will face doubles partner Jessica Pegula next.

Later, Britain's Harriet Dart lost 6-3 6-4 in a closely-fought encounter against Latvia's Jelena Ostapenko.

Dart, another Briton who has produced some good grass-court results, fought hard against Birmingham Classic champion Ostapenko.

However, the 26-year-old Ostapenko was the better of the two in the pressure moments to set up a quarter-final against either Ons Jabeur or Camila Giorgi.
