Anastasia Zakharova vs Anna Bondar — R128 — Miami Open

Zakharova flipped this one once she stopped trading breaks. Set one was chaos — seven breaks of serve before Bondar edged it 7-5 — and the second stayed wild through five consecutive holds of nobody's serve until Zakharova settled. From there she broke in games 3, 5 and 7 of the third to close it 6-1, leaning on a 78% first-serve rate against Bondar's 68%. Bondar's five aces never translated; she won just 45% of her second-serve points. Zakharova draws Kalinskaya next.
