Gauff clears Gadecki and reaches the second round at Roland-Garros

Seeded number 2 in the women's draw, Coco Gauff is one of the last favorites to make her debut at Roland-Garros this year. The American, facing Australian player Olivia Gadecki, did not falter to reach the second round.

Against a player who committed too many unforced errors (33, against only 8 winners), Gauff didn't have to push herself too much, although she was sometimes in trouble on her serve (7 double faults).

In the end, the American, finalist of the 2022 edition, did not expend much energy and reached the second round (6-2, 6-2). For a place in the third round, she will face either Chloé Paquet or Tereza Valentova.

A finalist in the last two WTA 1000 tournaments in Madrid and Rome, Gauff is among the favorites to win this tournament, and she certainly didn't miss her start in this year's tournament.
