All four Canadian women were in action in doubles on Sunday, with two of them playing against each other.
After a tournament snafu meant Leylah Fernandez and Venus Williams couldn’t play at Indian Wells, they made good in Miami and faced Cana-Kiwi Asia Muhammad and her American partner and bestie. Asia Muhammad. They had five match points, but couldn’t pull the trigger. The first three, especially, will sting.
Also, Victoria Mboko and Mirra Andreeva, who did play together at Indian Wells, went at it again and upset a seeded team.
And Gabriela Dabrowski and Brazilian partner Luisa Stefani, the No. 3 seeds, impressed in their debut.
The men also start play.
(Miami is on EDT).
