Sinner and Pegula advance to third round at Miami Open

Jannik Sinner aims to complete the Sunshine Double after winning Indian Wells; Jessica Pegula advances to face Leylah Fernandez at Miami Open.

  • On Saturday, world number two Jannik Sinner defeated Damir Dzumhur 6-3, 6-3 to reach the Miami Open third round, while US fifth seed Jessica Pegula advanced after Britain's Francesca Jones retired trailing 6-1, 3-0.
  • Jannik Sinner arrives in Miami after capturing his 25th career ATP title by beating Daniil Medvedev earlier this month and aims to complete the Sunshine Double last achieved by Roger Federer in 2017.
  • Sinner displayed decisive serving and breaks by taking the first set in 34 minutes after breaking for a 2-0 lead and closing with a backhand winner, dropping only eight points on serve.
  • Pegula will next face Canadian 26th seed Leylah Fernandez, while Sinner's next opponent will be either France's 31st-ranked Corentin Moutet or Czech Tomas Machac.
  • Other results highlighted the draw's unpredictability, as Daniil Medvedev, former world number one, survived a two-hour and four-minute match against Japanese 19-year-old wildcard Rei Sakamoto, while Japanese 14th seed Naomi Osaka was ousted by Australian qualifier Talia Gibson.
