Gauff defeats Zidansek to reach Roland-Garros third round
Coco Gauff beat Tamara in straights on Wednesday evening at the French Open. Gauff will next go up against either Dayana Yastremska or Yafan Wang.
While Iga Swiatek and Naomi Osaka played a three-set thriller on Court Philippe-Chatrier, Coco Gauff was on Court Suzanne-Lenglen quietly making her way to the third round at Roland-Garros.
Gauff beat Slovenian qualifier Tamara Zidansek 6-3, 6-4 on Wednesday evening. The third-seeded American was one of only four women who advanced on Wednesday, as all play on the outside courts was washed out by rain.
Gauff, ranked No 3, will next face the winner of the match between Chinese Yafan Wang and Ukrainian Dayana Yastremska, the No 30 seed, next. The 20-year-old preceded this result by defeating qualifier Julia Avdeeva (6-1, 6-1) in the opening round.
Zidansek, ranked No 131, got the best of Belgian Alison Van Uytvanck (6-2, 2-6, 6-1).
