For her first round of 16 in a Grand Slam, Océane Dodin closes the program this Monday, January 22 against the Chinese Qinwen Zheng on the Rod Laver Arena. The Lille player will have a lot to do against the 15th in the world. Dodin will have to ride on her success without discussion in the third round against her compatriot Clara Burel to open the way to the quarter-finals.

The opposition will be raised, but the opportunity is great. After the surprise elimination of world number one Iga Swiatek, the top of the women’s draw is open, with Zheng as the highest seed (No. 12). The 21-year-old continues to progress, after a quarter-final at the US Open. But she came very close to going off the road in the previous round, won in the tie-break of the third set. Océane Dodin, with her offensive play, has arguments to make after a remarkable start to the tournament without the slightest set lost. Follow the meeting live with commentary.
