Victoria Tomova qualified for the second round of the singles of the women's tennis tournament of the WTA 1000 series in Miami with a prize fund of almost 9 million US dollars, FOCUS reported.
Bulgaria's first racket defeated American Katie McNally 6:3, 2:6, 6:3. The match lasted 2 hours and 16 minutes.
This is Tomova's second win in two matches against the 23-year-old McNally, who is ranked No. 414 in the world, but this is mainly due to a seven-month absence due to injury and her ranking does not reflect her actual capabilities.
For this success, Tomova earned 35 points for the world ranking, and in the second round Vicky will play against the leader in the world ranking and No. 1 in the tournament schedule Aryna Sabalenka, who lost to Mira Andreeva in the final of the tournament in Indian Wells on Sunday.
