    Miami Open: Venus through to second round, Andreescu wins

    Veteran women's singles tennis star Venus Williams showed her mental strength after pulling off a challenging victory against Dalila Jakupovic at the WTA Miami Open. Venus won the tie 7-5, 6-3 in 78 minutes to progress into the second round. Canada's Bianca Andreescu, who won the Indian Wells days ago, continued her superb run. Here is more.

    Venus to face Suarez Navarro next

    Venus will be up against 24th seed Carla Suarez Navarro next. Three-time Miami Open champion Venus is making her record 20th Miami appearance. The veteran knows that she faces a tougher test against Navarro. "She's crafty, feisty, and competitive. She plays maybe a little more topspin than others and then some slice. So it's a little bit atypical game," said Venus.

    Serena to be in action from second round

    23-time Grand Slam winner Serena Williams will start her Miami Open campaign from the second round. She will be up against Sweden's Rebecca Peterson, who eliminated Laura Siegemund 6-1, 5-7, 7-5.

Samantha Stosur also moved into the third round. She beat Madison Keys 6-4, 4-6, 6-4.

    Men's singles: Win for Evans, Tomic sets up Djokovic date

    In the men's singles section, Bernard Tomic thrashed Brazilian qualifier Thiago Monteiro 6-4, 6-1 to set up a clash against world number one Novak Djokovic. British number three Dan Evans eased into the second round after defeating Malek Jaziri 6-2, 6-0.
