This is the first meeting between both players.

American Coco Gauff is set to face Oceane Dodin in the Round of 32 at the Miami Open 2024. This marks the first encounter between these two promising players. Both are in excellent form this year, with third-seeded Gauff coming off a victory at the ASB Classic in Auckland. Her opponent, Dodin, made an impression earlier this year at the Australian Open.

In the season’s first Grand Slam, Dodin triumphed over Clara Burel and Martina Trevisan. However, she faces a tough challenge against Gauff, who has performed well on hard courts over the past year, winning 47.4% of her return games and 71.4% of her service games.

Gauff’s aggressive play has been a key strength, as seen in her second-round match at the Miami Open, where she hit a total of 34 winners. Her service games have been particularly strong, highlighted by the 5 aces she served. With a conversion rate of over 70% in service games across the last 10 tournaments.

Gauff has converted 300 of 574 break points (52.3%) over the last year, placing her 142nd overall. In her last 10 events, she has improved, converting 211 of 379 break points (55.7%).

French player Oceane Dodin is certainly mindful of Gauff’s form and will aim to maintain her service games. On hard courts, Dodin has a commendable 68.6% win rate, having won 94 out of 137 service games. In her last ten tournaments, she has secured 67.5% of her service games.

However, these statistics may not suffice against Gauff, who has achieved 17 victories in 21 matches played. After reaching the semifinals of both the Australian Open and Indian Wells, Gauff has competed with the best in the circuit and is expected to pose a significant challenge for the 27-year-old Dodin.
