Coco Gauff continued her winning streak on No. 1 Court at Wimbledon, securing a decisive 6-2, 6-1 victory over qualifier Anca Todoni to advance to the third round. It was on this very court that Gauff, now 20, famously defeated Venus Williams in 2019 during her Grand Slam debut.

'This is the court where I first started here at Wimbledon. Court 1 is always a special place for me to play on,' the No. 2 seed reflected in her on-court interview. Gauff's progression marks a significant step away from last year's disappointing first-round exit.

Elsewhere, defending champion Carlos Alcaraz battled back to beat Alexsander Vukic, while other top seeds including Danielle Collins, Beatriz Haddad Maia, and Ugo Humbert also secured their spots in the next round.
