Píšková swept Saisai Zheng in Miami and may be preparing to retaliate for the recent debacles

Sixth deployed Karolina Pliskova Although in a duel Saisai Zheng she was the first to lose the serve and lost 1-2, but then she did not allow any further complications. She gained another six games in a row and picked up her opponent’s service five times in total. Ani ve third mutual duel she didn’t lose a set with a Chinese woman.

In the third round, however, the finalist from 2019 is waiting for an opponent with whom she has bad and very fresh memories. With Jessica Pegula in March, she lost in Doha and Dubai, and after the debacles 3-6 1-6 and 0-6 2-6, respectively.

She managed her first match since the triumph at the Australian Open Naomi Ósakaová. In Miami, the world number two started with a 7-6 6-4 victory over the Australian Ajlou Tomljanovicovou and by simply advancing to the 3rd round, it had already reached its Florida maximum.

Garbiñe Muguruzaová, which has already played three finals this year and turned the last one into a title in Dubai, entered the tournament in Miami with the expected 6-4 6-1 win over the Chinese woman Xinyu Wang. The Spanish tennis player will compete with Martičová or Kalinská for the round of 16, which would equal her maximum in Florida.

The Netherlands Kiki Bertensová, who underwent Achilles operation last October, did not play a set in the third match after her return. Today in Miami, the world number 11 clearly lost 2-6 1-6 to Russia Lyudmillou Samsonovovou.
