It had been a while since Magda Linette made her way into the top ranks at a tournament like the 2025 Miami Open. The Polish player has taken the spotlight this week, especially yesterday, when she managed to defeat Coco Gauff and prove that she remains a threat under favorable conditions. What does it take to beat a World No. 3 in a WTA 1000 tournament? This is the answer:
"I was brave, which I could back up with my quite solid serves because she is really tough. Still, even when you break her serve, she remains very tough, keeps competing no matter what. For me, it was crucial to keep pressuring her, ensure she felt that pressure, so I had to return quite well for that," said Linette, who will clash later today against Jasmine Paolini for a spot in the semifinals.
