Zeynep Sonmez will be looking to continue with her winning start at the Miami Open when she faces 12th seed Belinda Bencic. This will be their second career meeting and the first on a hard court. Read on for our prediction of this match.
Sonmez is making her Miami main draw debut and defeated Beatriz Haddad Maia in straight sets in the first round. The Turkish world number one has now won 10 matches in 2026 but has had consistency concerns.
With seven defeats thus far, Sonmez has won multiple matches once in the last five tournaments she has played. Now up to 74th in the live ranking, a third-round exit in Melbourne as a qualifier remains Sonmez’s season highlight.
Belinda Bencic is back in Miami, where she made her main draw debut 11 years ago. The Swiss star is a former semi-finalist of this event, achieving the feat four years ago.
She, however, hasn’t moved past the third round in her last two appearances. Bencic, who has dropped to 13th in the live ranking, is coming off a fourth-round defeat at Indian Wells.
The 29-year-old has won nine times this season and started the year with six straight wins. She defeated Sonmez on clay in Madrid last season.
