Azarenka Aces, Bencic Battles, and Kyrgios Catches Fire as Miami Open Heats Up in Early Round.

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.
