Bianca Andreescu continues her run through the 2021 Miami Open with a semifinal match-up against Maria Sakkari on Thursday.
Andreescu has showed her trademark resiliency in recent matches, having won all but her first encounter in Miami in three sets. That's not to say she's struggled — some rust has definitely been display at times throughout the tournament as the Canadian shakes off the effects of a tennis-free 2020 — but her opposition has provided challenge after challenge for the 20-year-old star, which Andreescu has overcome every time.
Her next challenge is 25-year-old Sakkari, the Athens-born player who earned the right to face Andreescu by handing Naomi Osaka her first defeat in 24 matches. Sakkari will not be overawed coming up against Andreescu, which may be exactly what the ultra-competitive Canuck needs to kick her game into another gear.
