Elena Gabriela Ruse and Antonia Ruzic are both unseeded and will battle in the first round in Miami. The winner of their second career meeting will play Madison Keys next. Read on for our prediction of this match.
Elena Ruse defeated Ruzic when they first met. That was in the qualifying rounds at the 2024 US Open. She will be hoping the chips fall as they did then as she seeks to spark a season turnaround.
The Romanian is having a slow season and has so far compiled an 8-7 record. Most of her wins have come in the preliminary rounds, as it is only at the Australian Open that she has recorded her only main draw wins.
Currently on a three-match losing run, Ruse has dropped 15 places to 88th in the live ranking.
Antonia Ruzic is also having a wobbly season but has fared much better than Ruse. The Croat has compiled an 8-8 record and starts the week having dropped four places to 59th in the live ranking.
While Ruse is struggling to win on tour, Ruzic has produced some strong performances despite the inconsistency. The 23-year-old, who is making her Miami debut, has a semi-final finish in Hobart and a run to the quarter-final in Dubai as her season highlights.
In Dubai, Ruzic earned her first WTA top 10 win as she defeated world number three Elena Rybakina.
