Coco Gauff faced rising star Mirra Andreeva in her third consecutive match at Suzanne-Lenglen and needed two hours to end the qualifier’s run. She didn’t serve out the first set but came back to win 6-7, 6-1, 6-1 and advance to the second week in Paris for the third year in a row. In her young career, the 19-year-old has already made it to the second week of majors seven times. She is 3-4 in round-of-16 matches, with her most recent loss coming to Jelena Ostapenko at the Australian Open in January. World No. 6 was a 2021 quarterfinalist and runner-up to Iga Swiatek a year ago in Paris.

Anna Karolina Schmiedlova, 28, has reached the fourth round of a Grand Slam for the first time in her career. This is an unexpected triumph for a player who had only 16 career major victories prior to arriving in Paris. In addition, she had not advanced past the second round of any tour-level event since February 2022. She is the first Slovak woman to reach the second week of Roland-Garros since Dominika Cibulkova’s quarterfinal run 11 years ago. To continue, she must overcome her 1-8 record against top-10 players; her lone victory came against Roberta Vinci at the 2016 Rio Olympics.

Head to head

Coco Gauff has a 1-0 lead. She won their first-round match at the Madrid Open a little more than a year ago in exactly an hour, 6-0, 6-2, despite saving all three breakpoints. The sixth seed, who is the youngest player remaining in the draw, will be unconcerned about facing her second-lowest opponent of the tournament.
