Belinda Bencic suffered a 6:7, 3:6 defeat to Russia’s Ekaterina Alexandrowa (after a bye) in the third round.
The advance of the Swiss, this year’s tournament winner in Adelaide and Abu Dhabi, has come to a standstill. Against Leylah Fernandez, after all a former US Open finalist, it was Friday with 6: 1, 6: 1 the 16th win of the season, but this individual victory remains the only victory of the past month for the time being.
Bencic could certainly expect a win against Ekaterina Alexandrowa. Aleksandrowa may be the world No. 18, but she has consistently played poorly in Miami, taking just four wins in the first three months of the new season (compared to Bencic’s 16).
However, Belinda Bencic could not live up to her favorite role for a long time. She fell behind early with a break and eventually lost 6:7 (8:10), 3:6 in 116 minutes. Alexandrova used her first match point. Belinda Bencic had chances in the final phase of the first set. When the score was 5: 4 and in the tiebreak 6: 5 and 7: 6, she had a total of four set balls.
