GAUFF 23-1 IN US AFTER BEATING DODIN
Gauff overcame a slow start to defeat Oceane Dodin, 6-4, 6-0, to progress into the fourth round.
The South Florida native overcame an early deficit in the first set to close out Dodin and improve to 23-1 in the US this year.
Gauff’s only loss this year so far was against Maria Sakkari at Indian Wells earlier this month.
“It would be really cool to win here at home. I think the best part about winning here is just being able to drive home with the trophy and not have to fly and pack,” Gauff said.
The reigning US Open champion, who turned 20 on March 13, next faces No.27 Carolina Garcia, who beat Naomi Osaka of Japan, 7-6(4), 7-5.
