Mirra Andreeva is looking to bounce back in Miami after her Indian Wells title defence came to an end.
In the first half of the Sunshine Double, Andreeva fell to Katerina Siniakova in three sets and dropped to 10th in the world rankings, having won the tournament last year.
The Russian has started her Miami Open campaign promisingly however, and has won her first two matches.
Who are you backing to complete the sunshine double?
Or do you think both Sabalenka and Sinner will win the Miami Open?
Andreeva beat McCartney Kessler in round one and overcame Marie Bouzkova in straight sets in the second round.
With her recent results, she has achieved a feat on the WTA Tour not even Serena Williams can match.
Mirra Andreeva completes incredible feat on the WTA Tour
Andreeva has now won a total of 30 matches at hard court WTA 1000 competitions, a tally that ranks highly among legends at her age.
At 18 years and 326 days, only Martina Hingis managed to claim as many wins as Andreeva at her age, with the Swiss capturing 37.
The next highest after Andreeva is Maria Sharapova with 26, followed by the Williams sisters, Serena and Venus, who have 24 each.
Still incredibly early in her career, Andreeva already has two hard-court WTA 1000 crowns to her name.
She won a maiden title at the level in Dubai last year, and followed it up by emerging triumphant at the 2025 Indian Wells Open.
Mirra Andreeva’s next opponent at the Miami Open
Andreeva’s next opponent at the Miami Open is Victoria Mboko, whom she has already faced twice this season.
The two teenagers had their very first career clash in the Adelaide International final earlier in the year, where Andreeva came out on top.
In the round of 16 at the Qatar Open, however, Mboko earned revenge and beat Andreeva in three sets to level the rivalry.
Now, the two will do battle for the third time ever, with a place in the Miami Open quarterfinals up for grabs.
