The Miami Open 2022 may not be the biggest story in tennis right now amid the backdrop of WTA world No.1 Ash Barty’s retirement but the tournament kicks off in full with plenty of drama to come.
The absence of the top contender has thrown the door wide open for Barty’s rivals to launch their own power grabs. Aryna Sabalenka is the new de facto queen of the court and will hope to make the most of her top seeding.
Naomi Osaka is among the unseeded players competing in the Round of 128 today as they all battle to face the seeded stars in Round 2.
In the men’s game, British aces Andy Murray and world No.146 Jack Draper will enter at the first round stage as they seek to battle through to face tough competitors.
Nick Kyrgios, David Goffin, Richard Gasquet and Benoit Paire will also compete in the first round where the top seeds lie in wait for their chance to get going.
