Miami Open 2023: The Miami Open is one of the most prestigious tennis tournaments in the world, and this year's edition promises to be as exciting as ever. The Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida, home to the NFL's Miami Dolphins, is the unlikely venue for this showcase of tennis talent. But the stadium has undergone a transformation to host the best players in the world for the next two weeks.
The combined ATP and WTA 1000-level event will run from March 21 to April 2 and will feature some of the brightest stars and most accomplished champions in the sport. The Miami Open is the second stop of the 'Sunshine Double,' following the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells, California, earlier this month.
Last year's champions, Carlos Alcaraz and Iga Swiatek, will be looking to defend their titles against a formidable field. However, the absence of world No.1 Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal, two of the biggest names in the sport, is a disappointment for fans. Djokovic, a six-time champion at Miami, will not be able to compete due to US regulations that bar unvaccinated foreigners from entering the country. Meanwhile, Nadal continues to recover from a hip injury sustained during the Australian Open.
