Sofia Kenin Player Overview
Kenin has recently emerged from a profound crisis, which in itself is a remarkable achievement. Frequent injuries and mental health issues had turned Sofia into an unremarkable mid-tier player. However, at a certain point, her high ambitions prevailed. The closest she came to triumph was last fall in Tokyo (top-2), although she also put up solid performances in Dubai (top-8) and Hobart (top-8) during the winter. On her home turf, the athlete dealt with Bernarda Pera in an hour and a half, focusing on a strong serve (1 break and 27% of points lost on her first serve).

Belinda Bencic Player Overview
Belinda Bencic made a triumphant return to the tour after her maternity leave, immediately making waves by clinching the trophy in Abu Dhabi. While she hasn't yet regained her former consistency, Bencic is undoubtedly on the right track. This month, the Swiss star made an impressive run to the top-8 at Indian Wells, knocking out none other than Coco Gauff along the way. However, she fell to Madison Keys without much of a fight, failing to earn a single break point in the second set.
