Monday, 1 April 2024



MIAMI GARDENS, Florida, Mar 31 (AP): Danielle Collins had the perfect send-off at her final Miami Open, beating Elena Rybakina 7-5, 6-3 on Saturday to capture the title in her home state before an adoring crowd that included Andre Agassi and Martina Navratilova.
Collins announced at the Australian Open that this season would be her last because she's suffering from endometriosis, a painful ailment that affects the uterus. On her fourth match point, she hit a backhand crosscourt winner, then bent over for 10 seconds without moving.
