Ostapenko Was a Finalist in 2018     

2018 Miami Open finalist Jelena Ostapenko will begin her 2023 campaign in the second round after receiving a first-round bye.

The 24th seed brings a 10-7 season record into the tournament. Her best so far in 2023 was a run to the quarterfinals at the Australian Open. However, she has not been able to reach the last eight in any other tournament.

It is due to her inconsistency that the Latvian has fallen out of the top 20. She had reached the no. 12th rank following her Australian Open performance, but is currently ranked no. 22 in the world.

Most recently, the 25-year-old played in Indian Wells, where she won her second round match against Aliaksandra Sasnovich, but fell in the third round to Petra Kvitova.

The 2017 French Open champion is making her sixth appearance in Miami. In 2018, she had made it to the title clash but finished runner-up to Sloane Stephens.

A five-time champion from 13 finals, Ostapenko had reached three finals last year, winning one title and finishing runner-up twice. She will be hoping to get into a rhythm early in the tournament.

Bjorklund Rallies Past Paolini

Sweden’s Mirjam Bjorklund bounced back from a set down to defeat Jasmine Paolini in the first round of the tournament.

The world no. 149 converted 5 of 12 break points and saved 7 of 11 to beat the world no. 71, 4-6, 6-4, 6-4. It is the first time that the Swede is playing in a WTA 1000 tournament, so the win was her first in a main draw of a big tournament.

Bjorklund had made it to the main draw through the qualifiers. She had also won both her qualifying matches in three sets.

In her first qualifying round, she had beaten Ysaline Bonaventure 6-4, 4-6, 6-3 in the first qualifying round and then she ousted Tamara Zidanšek 6-3, 3-6, 6-4 in the second qualifying round.

Following the three wins, the 24-year-old is now 8-6 across levels this year. Can she keep her impressive run going in Miami?

Ostapenko v Bjorklund Prediction and Tip

Ostapenko has a superior record and she is more experienced at the top level. Expect her to ease past the qualifier.
