No. 2 seeds Stefanos Tsitsipas and Aryna Sabalenka will hit the court again this Monday at the Miami Open, on a day that will determine all the Women’s quarterfinal matches and the men’s fourth round fixtures.

Life was not easy for seeded players at the 2023 Miami Open presented by Itaú this Saturday: between upsets and hard-fought battles, nine of the 16 men’s singles seeds who played their second-round matches today were knocked out, while fan favorites Coco Gauff and Victoria Azarenka were also ousted from the women’s draw.

There will be no fun under the sun for top seeds Carlos Alcaraz and Aryna Sabalenka, who will be back for their next matchups tomorrow, March 26, at the 2023 Miami Open in a packed Sunday that also includes World No. 4 Casper Ruud, American No. 1 player Taylor Fritz and many other tennis standouts.

There aren’t many things as sacred as Happy Hour on a Friday night in Miami. And even Carlos Alcaraz was aware of that, as the World No. 1 delighted fans for a little bit more than 60 minutes in a 6-0, 6-2 victory over Argentina’s Facundo Bagnis at Hard Rock Stadium.

It’s time for Hard Rock Stadium to shine. The first Saturday of the 2023 Miami Open presented by Itaú will be full of tennis stars taking over the main courts, including Stefanos Tsitsipas, Americans Jessica Pegula and Coco Gauff, Daniil Medvedev and a clash between WTA hot shots Elena Rybakina and Paula Badosa.

Jessica Pegula got off to a great start at the 2023 Miami Open presented by Itaú. The Buffalo, N.Y. native cruised past Canadian qualifier Katherine Sebov, 6-3, 6-1 this Thursday, March 23, and has booked a third-round clash against countrywoman Danielle Collins.

The time has come for Carlos Alcaraz. Last year’s Miami Open presented by Itaú men’s singles winner starts the quest for the title defense this Friday, March 24, in a second-round match against Argentina’s Facundo Bagnis.

“Does anyone here play tennis?”, asked the umpire. Ethan Goldstein, one of the ball people on court, was standing at the net while working on his first match of the day and promptly said yes.

Bianca Andreescu edged Emma Raducanu of Great Britain 6-3, 3-6, 6-2 in the battle of past US Open champions this Wednesday and advanced to the Miami Open second round, where she will face No. 7 Maria Sakkari.

The first seeded players of the Women’s Singles main draw will make their 2023 Miami Open debuts this Thursday, March 23, including Americans Jessica Pegula and Coco Gauff, respectively Nos. 3 and 6, and No. 10 Elena Rybakina, who just won the Indian Wells title.
