Day 3 of WTA Madrid 2025 heats up with Belinda Bencic facing Clara Tauson. Check predictions and more at AMERICA NEWS WORLD

The WTA Madrid Open is in full swing. Day 3, on April 24, 2025, promises thrilling tennis action. Big names like Belinda Bencic, Clara Tauson, and Jelena Ostapenko take the court. Fans are buzzing with excitement. At AMERICA NEWS WORLD (america112.com), we’re breaking down the key matches. Who will move forward? Let’s dive into the predictions and see what’s at stake.
First up, Belinda Bencic faces Clara Tauson. This second-round clash is a must-watch. Bencic, ranked No. 42, crushed Zeynep Sonmez 6-0, 6-2 in her opener. It was her first clay win since 2023. Tauson, ranked No. 23, had a tough start on clay. She lost to Anastasia Potapova in Stuttgart, despite holding a match point. But don’t count her out. Tauson beat world No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka in Dubai earlier this year. That’s a huge deal.
These two met once before, in Doha 2022. Tauson won 6-4, 3-6, 6-3. It was a tight battle. Now, they face off on Madrid’s clay. Bencic looked sharp against Sonmez, blasting 21 winners. Tauson, though, has power and grit. Her aggressive style could shake Bencic. Still, Bencic’s experience might give her the edge. We predict Bencic will win in three sets. It’ll be close, though.
Next, Jelena Ostapenko takes on Anastasija Sevastova. This all-Latvian showdown is electric. Ostapenko, fresh off a Stuttgart title, is on fire. She beat three top-10 players there, including Iga Swiatek. Sevastova, a veteran, isn’t fazed. She’s 2-0 against Ostapenko and won her opener against Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova. Sevastova’s steady game could frustrate Ostapenko. But Ostapenko’s confidence is sky-high. We think she’ll win in two sets.
Another match to watch is Donna Vekic versus Hailey Baptiste. Vekic, the No. 19 seed, got a first-round bye. Her clay season started poorly with a loss in Stuttgart. Baptiste, however, is surging. She upset Sorana Cirstea in a three-set epic, firing 44 winners. Vekic’s power is dangerous, but her form is shaky. Baptiste’s momentum could carry her through. We’re backing Baptiste to win in three sets.
Finally, Magdalena Frech faces Jessica Bouzas Maneiro. Both players have had mixed seasons. Bouzas Maneiro beat Maria Sakkari on clay in Rouen. She also cruised past Mayar Sherif in Madrid. Frech, though, struggled in Stuttgart, losing to Jessica Pegula. Their head-to-head is tied at 1-1. Bouzas Maneiro’s clay form gives her a slight advantage. We predict she’ll win in three sets.
Why does this matter? The WTA Madrid Open is a WTA 1000 event. It’s a big deal. Players earn ranking points and prize money. The winner gets $1.1 million and 1000 points. For fans, it’s a chance to see top stars battle on clay. Madrid’s fast clay courts make for exciting rallies. Plus, it’s a key warm-up for the French Open.

One user wrote, “Jelena’s unstoppable after Stuttgart!” X posts show Baptiste gaining fans. “She’s a dark horse,” one tweet said. These matches are trending globally, especially in the USA and India.
