MIAMI OPEN: Bianca Andreescu does it again, d Angelique Kerber 6-4, 4-6, 6-1. After poor end to set 2, BA reverts to form in 3rd. Try as she did, AK couldn't handle BA's firepower. Next v #19 Anett Kontaveit, 23, (EST). Main BA concern is shoulder, treated during match 4 times pic.twitter.com/aqxtXPLAN6
