Collins is on an absolute roll at the moment. The Florida native has won her last 12 matches; a run that has seen the 30-year-old win the prestigious Miami Open title.

Collins crowned her astonishing run at the Miami Open by winning the final against fourth seed Elena Rybakina. The unseeded American was not intimidated by the Kazakh's powerful serves, and stormed to a 7-5, 6-3 victory after using her two-handed backhand to devastating effect.

After winning the most prestigious title of her career so far, the 30-year-old named Quincy the 'Miami Open MVP' via a social media post, which also featured a heartwarming caption:

"Just wanted to do a very quick PSA! This year's Miami Open MVP goes to my very handsome, very sophisticated, smart, loving, charismatic, ball of energy, my favorite son... Mister Q! Quincy, I don't know what I would do without you. I love you sir!!" Collins wrote in an Instagram post that chronicled Quincy's Miami Open adventures.

Collins trails Kasatkina 1-2 in their head-to-head, but won their last encounter in the final of the 2021 Silicon Valley Classic in San Jose, California.
