"Some of my best results came off of injuries" - Collins believes in Miami success

Danielle Collins is coming off of an injury but the American strongly believes she has what it takes to win the Miami Masters.

Collins is one of four Americans in the fourth round and was the first to take to the court on Monday ahead of big matches for Alison Riske, Jessica Pegula and Coco Gauff. She booked her place in her second Miami Open quarterfinal with a 6-2, 6-4 defeat of No.8 seed Ons Jabeur in only 66 minutes. After the match she said:

“I feel like we come out here and either one of us could win on any given day. She beat me in practice a few days ago, and beat me in Indian Wells. We’ve had some great times on court, so I was just trying to be competitive against my friend."

The Australian Open finalist delivered a formidable serving performance, conceding only 13 points behind her delivery in total. It's an impressive thing considering she is still feeling some effects of her injuries but overall it doesn't not bother her:

“I’ve had some of my best results after coming back from injuries or having a little bit of time off at the end of the year. I try to tell myself that when I feel a little off or rusty.”
