March 19th, 2025

The WTA first round concluded Wednesday, and the results set up some compelling second round matches, particularly in the bottom section of the draw. Three-time Miami Open winner Victoria Azarenka won to set up a match against No. 15 Karolina Muchova, while 2021 Olympic Gold medalist Belinda Bencic continues her great play after maternity leave with a three-set win Wednesday to set up a match against fellow mom Elina Svitolina, the No. 21 seed. Looming in that section is No. 2 and former Miami Open winner Iga Swiatek.
The ATP got main draw play underway with back-to-back three setters on Stadium Court. The oldest man in the draw, 38-year-old Gael Monfils outlasted Fabian Marozsan while Nick Kyrgios came from behind to defeat Mackenzie McDonald.
