Command Analysis

Elise Mertens

Current form
Mertens consistently overcame the barrier of the opening round and lost at the previous two tournaments in Dubai and Indian Wells. This time, the Belgian tennis player played her first match more than confidently, defeating Stearns 6-4, 6-1 with a crushing score. There was some intrigue in that meeting only in the first set. Thus, Elise improved on her last year's result on local courts when she holstered her racket in the second round.
Professional qualities
The Belgian tennis player always strives to play in an attacking manner, shoots powerfully with both hands, and is not afraid to go to the net. However, she lacks stability: she can play a match more than confidently, and in the next game she will completely fail.
Current indicators in the tour
Mertens has solid statistics for the season: 15 wins and five losses. She achieved her greatest success at the less prestigious tournaments in Hobart (final) and Singapore (title). In the world ranking, Elise is in 28th position.

- Mertens has played three sets in only one of her last five matches.

Iga Swiatek

Current form
In Indian Wells, Schwentek failed to defend last year's title, losing in the semifinals to Mirra Andreeva with a score of 6-7, 6-1, 3-6. Clearly in Miami, the Polish tennis player is betting on possible success, because this year she has not yet won a single trophy. At the start, Iga defeated Garcia (6-2, 7-5), but she did not play too confidently in the second game.
Professional qualities
Schwentek is a versatile tennis player, likes to dictate her terms on the court, acts in an aggressive manner, and makes full use of the potential of her powerful forehand. At the same time, she is always able to reliably play on the back line.
