The top players in the world have returned to the 5th Slam for another year of great action.
Held at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida, the Miami Open continues to be a highlight of the season for any player and fan.
Alcaraz, Djokovic and Zverev Lead the Charge in Miami
With world No. 1 Jannik Sinner sidelined due to a doping suspension until the Rome Masters, the spotlight at the 2025 Miami Open will shine on four-time Grand Slam champion Carlos Alcaraz and tennis icon Novak Djokovic. The 96-player field will battle it out from March 16-30 under the South Florida sun.
Alcaraz, the 2022 champion, is eager to reclaim the title and edge closer to the world No. 1 ranking. The 20-year-old Spaniard continues to dazzle with his dynamic shot-making and relentless energy, making him a favorite to go deep in the tournament.
Meanwhile, six-time Miami Open champion Djokovic will command plenty of attention. Turning 38 later this spring, the Serbian legend could be making his final appearance at this event. The last time he lifted the Miami trophy was in 2016, capping off a stretch where he dominated the tournament by winning five times in six years.
Beyond Alcaraz and Djokovic, the draw is stacked with talent. Top seed Alexander Zverev, US Open finalist Taylor Fritz, and crowd favourite Tommy Paul will all be vying for glory.
Zverev, who is still in search of his maiden Grand Slam, will be hopeful that a great results in Miami will aid him in reaching yet another final at Roland Garros later this Spring.
Keep an eye on Brazilian rising star Joao Fonseca. With a title already under his belt this season, the electrifying teenager is expected to ignite the Latin American fan base and bring an extra dose of excitement to the tournament.
A Hard-Court Showdown for the WTA
Miami’s hard courts—often considered the most balanced surface in professional tennis—will once again provide the stage for the world’s best women’s players.
World No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka arrives in South Florida with one goal: to claim her first Miami Open title. The three-time Grand Slam champion thrives on hard courts and will be among the favorites to hoist the trophy.
Former champion Iga Swiatek is also poised for a strong showing as she looks to build momentum heading into the clay-court season. The five-time Major winner remains a formidable force on any surface and will be eager to add another Miami title to her resume.
The American contingent will be a major storyline, with defending champion Danielle Collins leading the charge alongside Coco Gauff, Jessica Pegula, Madison Keys, Emma Navarro, and Amanda Anisimova. With home-court support, expect them to put on a show.
