The Polish woman is not as dominant this season as she was last year. Świątek won one tournament in Doha. In the last one in Indian Wells she lost in the semi-finals with Rybakina. She lost 2-6, 2-6. Now both tennis players can meet in the quarterfinals in Miami, because they are in the same tournament quarter of the ladder.
Americans don’t believe in Christmas
The Americans have prepared a special analysis in which they indicate the favorites of each part of the ladder. According to tennis.com, Świątek will play in the second week of the tournament in Miami, but he will again lose to Rybakina.
If both do reach the quarter-finals, it will be their fourth match in the tournament. Both due to the place in the WTA ranking in the first round have a bye. Statistics would speak for Rybakina in a direct clash with Świątek. The Polish player has faced Kazaszka twice this season and each time she left the court defeated. This was in the previously mentioned Indian Wells semi-final and the fourth round of the Australian Open.
Interestingly, the tennis.com portal chose its favorites to play in the finals of the tournament. According to them, Jessica Pegula and Aryna Sabalenka will play for the title. The American will defeat Rybakina in the semi-finals, and the Belarusian will defeat Bianca Andreescu.
The tournament in Miami began on Tuesday, March 21 and will end on Sunday, April 2. Świątek will face either Claire Liu or Katerina Siniakova in the second round. Reports from all meetings of the Polish woman will be available on the website of Przegląd Sportowy Onet.
