Coco Gauff is dazzling in Paris, dropping no more than 15 games in a match en route to the fourth round of Roland Garros. In the first three rounds, she dispatched Dayana Yastremska, Tamara Zidansek, and Julia Avdeeva, none of whom was ranked inside the top 30.

She now faces another player who ranked outside the top 30, Elisabetta Cocciaretto of Italy. This is Cocciaretto’s best result yet in a Grand Slam and she had to defeat two top 20 players in Beatriz Haddad Maia and Liudmila Samsonova for it. She also breezed past Spain’s Cristina Bucsa in the second round.

Their first meeting was in 2022, in the first round of the Guadalajara Open. That match saw a very close first set, which Gauff ended up winning in a tiebreak. The second was just as close, but Gauff found some breaks to seal the seal deal 7-6, 6-3. Their most recent meeting was at the Dubai Tennis Championships earlier this year, in the first round again. Gauff won with a better scoreline this time, triumphing 6-1, 7-5.

Their meeting in the fourth round of Roland Garros will be the first at the Grand Slam level and third overall.

Coco Gauff vs Elisabetta Cocciaretto: Match Prediction

Coco Gauff, despite being much younger, is more experienced than Cocciaretto in playing at the Grand Slam, winning a US Open title and making the final of the French Open before turning 20. She has also had deep runs in other Grand Slam events and has been a contender for the title in every tournament she plays in.

This year has been forgettable so far for her as she has not won a title in over 6 months. But, she seems to have picked up the pace in Paris and would be aiming to do one better than her 2022 result.

For Cocciaretto, however, this is uncharted waters, as she has never previously made it beyond the third round of a Grand Slam. Her best result at this level, before the French Open, was in Wimbledon last year, where she had reached the third round. So, Gauff being in good form and also having a wealth of experience backing her, should be able to get the win in her bag.

Match prediction: Coco Gauff to win in two sets.
