The Miami Open 2022 has started with unseeded stars battling in the first round for a place in the Round of 64 where the seeded stars await.

The women’s game is reeling from the shock news of world No.1 Ash Barty’s retirement this morning. Former world No.1 Naomi Osaka is among those entering the first round this week as she seeks to regain her status on the world stage.

Sloane Stephens is also among the unseeded players in the Round of 128 before the top contenders are blended into the pack from Friday onwards, including Emma Raducanu.

In the men’s game, Nick Kyrgios is the headline act of the Round of 128. He faces Adrian Mannarino in an excellent opening gambit for both players in this tournament. Kyrgios is fresh from a valiant display against Rafael Nadal in the Indian Wells Masters quarter-finals.

British aces Sir Andy Murray and world No.146 Jack Draper are both in action today as they seek to join seeded compatriots Dan Evans and Cam Norrie in the next round.

RadioTimes.com brings you the Miami Open 2022 order of play for today.
