Third-ranked Coco Gauff came from behind in the first set to beat Océane Dodin 6-4, 6-0 and advance to the Miami Open fourth round for the second time in her career.
Gauff won 10 straight games after Dodin took a 4-2 lead in the opening set.
The youngest American player to hold a top-three seed at Miami, 20-year-old Gauff has just one loss — against Maria Sakkari at Indian Wells earlier this month — in her past 23 matches in the US.
“It would be really cool to win here at home,” said South Floridian Gauff, who attended the event growing up. “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.”
She will next face No. 27 Caroline Garcia, who defeated Naomi Osaka 7-6 (4), 7-5 on Sunday in a match in which the pair combined for 28 aces.
In other matches, top-ranked Iga Swiatek came from behind to edge No. 31 Linda Nosková 6-7 (7), 6-4, 6-4.
Among the men, last year’s Miami Open runner-up Jannik Sinner rallied to outlast No. 26 Tallon Griekspoor 5-7, 7-5, 6-1 and advance to the fourth round.
Tomas Machac beat Andy Murray 5-7, 7-5, 7-6 (5). Murray appeared to land awkwardly on his left ankle in the third set and immediately cameup in pain but finished the match after briefly having the ankle checked.
