Women’s singles
In the women’s singles, British No.1 Emma Raducanu and No.2 Sonay Kartal could be set to face one another in the second round.
24th seed and recent Transylvania Open runner-up Raducanu has a bye into the second round, where she will face the winner of the first round clash between Kartal and Peyton Stearns.
Kartal made the fourth round at Indian Wells last week – becoming the first British woman to do so twice. However, Stearns is in strong form herself, having won the ATX Open WTA 250 event at the end of February.
Raducanu and Kartal have never played each other on the professional tour but were keen rivals and friends coming up through the ranks as juniors.
Should either of the Brits make the third round, they could be set to play 11th seed Ekaterina Alexandrova.
Francesca Jones has also been dealt one of the standout draws of the first round, taking on seven-time Grand Slam champion Venus Williams.
The winner will move on to face fifth seed Jessica Pegula in round two.
Finally, Ostrava Open champion Katie Boulter has been drawn against Spain’s Jessica Bouzas Maneiro in the first round before a potential clash with 17th seed Clara Tauson.
Karolina Muchova and Iga Swiatek are both in Boulter’s quarter of the draw.
Men’s singles
The men’s singles main draw is still yet to be announced – check back here soon for all the latest.
Indian Wells quarter-finalists Jack Draper and Cam Norrie are set to be amongst the draw this year.
Meanwhile, there will be four Brits in men’s singles qualifying at this year's Miami Open. Jack Pinnington Jones will play Hong Kong’s Colemon Wong in the first of two rounds, Billy Harris faces Australia’s Aleksandar Vukic, Jay Clarke is up against Japan’s Shintaro Mochizuki, and Arthur Fery will return to take on Argentina’s Roman Andres Burruchaga.
