Coco Gauff secured a convincing victory in the second round of the women's singles tournament at Roland Garros on Monday. The No. 2 seed displayed her dominance on Court Suzanne-Lenglen, swiftly taking a 6-1 win in the first set against María Lourdes Carlé.
With a strong start, Gauff continued her momentum into the second set by breaking Carlé in the opening game. The American player maintained her control and secured a 6-1 victory in the second set, sealing her place in the next round.
Earlier this year, Gauff showcased her prowess on the clay courts of Paris by claiming the women's doubles title at the French Open. Her current form suggests she is a force to be reckoned with in the singles competition as well.
Next up for Gauff is a challenging encounter against Croatia's Donna Vekic in the third round. Vekic, who defeated Bianca Andreescu in straight sets earlier on Monday, is riding a wave of success this season. Her recent achievement includes reaching the semifinals at Wimbledon, marking a significant milestone in her career at a grand slam event.
