WTA Miami Day 4 Predictions: Pegula Faces Off Against Jones
Rain caused major delays in the opening days of the WTA Miami event. Organizers now face a race against the clock to restore the schedule.
Weather and the Friday outlook
If the skies clear, Friday promises a packed session of high-quality matches. Many contests could be tightly contested and critical for the tournament timetable.
Match previews and short predictions
Zeynep Sonmez vs Belinda Bencic
Head-to-head: Bencic leads 1-0. Sonmez impressed against Beatriz Haddad Maia in round one. But Bencic represents a clear rise in level and will be highly motivated.
Prediction: Bencic in 2.
Yuliia Starodubtseva vs Cristina Bucsa
Head-to-head: Bucsa leads 2-0. On this surface the matchup reads closer than rankings suggest. Bucsa should hold the edge, though Starodubtseva can push if she keeps her qualifying form.
Prediction: Bucsa in 3.
Caty McNally vs Xinyu Wang
Head-to-head: Wang leads 1-0 after a tight three-set win earlier this year. Wang may be the stronger player overall, but recent struggles make this match fragile. McNally has the tools to force fine margins.
Prediction: Wang in 3.
Jessica Pegula vs Francesca Jones
Head-to-head: first meeting. Pegula arrives off a Dubai title and two losses to Elena Rybakina at the Australian Open and Indian Wells. She remains one of the tour’s most consistent players.
Prediction: Pegula in 2. This aligns with WTA Miami Day 4 predictions and reflects how Pegula faces Jones as a clear favorite.
- Matches may be rescheduled if weather delays persist.
- Expect several close encounters as players battle to move forward.
