Coco Gauff has survived three consecutive three-set matches to reach the quarterfinals of the 2026 Miami Open.
Will the top American netter survive another marathon match against Belinda Bencic to get to the semifinals?
Current Form:
Gauff outlasted Sorana Cirstea 6-4, 3-6, 6-2 in another three-set duel in the fourth round. Gauff, who crashed out in the third round of the 2026 Indian Wells Open with an arm injury, has now played three consecutive three-set matches in Miami. Although Gauff hasn’t shown any signs of being bothered by the injury, it is still something to monitor closely as she goes deeper into this tourney.
Meanwhile, Bencic has swept her first three opponents in Miami, taking down several prominent names like Zeynep Sonmez 6-3, 6-2, Diana Shnaider 6-3, 6-3 and world’s No.6 Amanda Anisimova 6-2, 6-2. Bencic is churning out elite numbers on the serve, winning 76.7 percent of her first serves and saving 87 percent of breakpoints.

Our Belinda Bencic vs Coco Gauff Prediction
Belinda Bencic will pull off an upset here.
Bookmakers seem to be already aware of Bencic’s current form here in Miami, listing the Swiss as a slight underdog at +100 to the current world’s No.4.
Bencic has won the last three matches with relative ease, dominating her opponents with well-placed serves and terrific groundstroke shots. On the other hand, Gauff had to grind out tough wins in extended minutes across three matches within a span of four days just to secure her quarterfinal slot.
Gauff has always been in a tip-top shape, but beating a well-rested Bencic in this high-stakes match would require her to dig deeper into her stamina reserves just to stay competitive with the red-hot Swiss.
Our betting prediction for Belinda Bencic vs. Coco Gauff: Belinda Bencic will win.
