In the third round of the Miami Open on Saturday, ninth seed Danielle Collins will face Russian qualifier Vera Zvonareva.
Danielle Collins had a fantastic run in this year’s Australian Open, where she finished runner-up to Ashleigh Barty.
She later withdrew from the Indian Wells 2022 tournament owing to illness. She appeared to be back in the game on Thursday at the Miami Open when she came back from a set down to overcome World No. 76 Anna Bondar and advanced to the third round.
Zvoranova, on the other hand, hasn’t had a particularly successful year. Prior to the Miami Open, she has only won one match in seven tournaments. However, she seemed to have learned from her mistakes in the Miami Open, as she struggled through two three-setters to win the qualifying stages before cruising through the first two rounds of the main tournament.
