PARIS — Coco Gauff is 2-0 so far at the Paris Olympics after adding a 6-3, 6-0 singles victory over Australia's Ajla Tomljanovic to a win a day earlier in doubles alongside Jessica Pegula. Gauff also is entered in mixed doubles with Taylor Fritz, which means there could be a lot of matches left to play at the 20-year-old American's Summer Games debut. At least she hopes so. She says she wants to win all of her events. For the record: It would take 15 victories — six in singles, five in women's doubles and four in mixed doubles — to collect a trio of tennis gold medals. No one has managed to do that since tennis returned to the Olympics in 1988.
