Lucie Safarova defeated Oceane Dodin 6–2, 6–2 in the first round of Wimbledon 2017 on grass. The Czech player, who entered as the clear favourite with odds of 1.44 against Dodin's 3.03, delivered a dominant performance to advance without significant resistance. The one-sided scoreline reflected Safarova's control throughout the match, as the seeded player imposed her game on the unseeded Frenchwoman from the outset. This comprehensive victory underscored Safarova's comfort on the Wimbledon surface and set up a favourable platform for her progression through the early rounds of the tournament.
