Open Court

MORE TENNIS THAN YOU'LL EVER NEED

(Pic: Miami Open)

Denis Shapovalov is among the last singles players to swing into action, with a good draw against qualifier Thiago Agustin Tirante.

And Gabriel Diallo, in as a lucky loser just like in Indian Wells, plays No. 17 seed Arthur Fils in the second round – just like in Indian Wells.

Grandstand will be the must-watch court with Indian Wells champion Jack Draper against the even-younger rising Czech, Jakub Mensik. And Joao Fonseca, who almost had a home match with all the Brazilians in attendance for his opening around against fellow teen Learner Tien, gets Ugo Humbert.

(Miami is on ET).
