Coco Gauff defeated Alycia Parks 3–6, 6–0, 6–1 in the second round of the Miami Masters 1000 on hard court, confirming her status as pre-match favourite at odds of 1.11 to Parks's 6.63. After losing the opening set, Gauff produced a dominant response, claiming the next two sets without conceding more than a single game in each, a performance that underscored her superior court control and consistency.
