Miami Open
will take place between March 17 and 31 at the Hard Rock Stadium, featuring two
weeks of the best ATP and WTA players in the culmination of the 'Sunshine
Double.' The U.S. tournament follows immediately after
Indian Wells and serves
as the final major event before the clay season.
ATP Stars
The field is lead by 2023 champion
Daniil Medvedev (No. 4), who aims
to defend his title against
Jannik Sinner (No. 3), currently in top form.
Carlos Alcaraz seeks to overcome his inconsistent performance and finish the
Sunshine Double strongly, considering he defends the most points in the March
Masters 1000 tournaments.
Unlike
Indian Wells, Miami Open will witness a couple of significant absences, notably
Rafael Nadal who will prepare the exhibition with Alcaraz in Las Vegas at the end of Miami Open. Additionally, 3-times Grand Slam champion Stan Wawrinka has also
chosen to skip the tournament and also
Novak Djokovic who is the latest casualty.
WTA looking for new champion
The most
notable absence in the WTA is the defending champion
Petra Kvitova, who will
miss the rest of the season due to pregnancy. 2023 finalist
Elena Rybakina has
already proven her proficiency in the Sunshine Double and will be among the
favorites, alongside
Iga Swiatek,
Aryna Sabalenka, and
Coco Gauff.
The WTA
organization has decided to grant wild cards to Grand Slam champion players.
Local and 7-times Grand Slam champion
Venus Williams, who also won Indian Wells
in 1998, 1999, and 2001, will be part of the lineup.
Caroline Wozniacki, a
finalist in 2017, and the 2021 US Open champion
Emma Raducanu will also
feature.
