Last night, Novak Djokovic logically qualified for the quarterfinals of Miami Masters 1000, while Matteo Bertttini dominated Alex de Minaur and will now challenge Taylor Fritz in the next round.
A slight hiccup to start and then a demonstration. Indeed,
If he started off badly against Lorenzo Musetti, Novak Djokovic then quickly rectified the shot and was easily established in two sets (6-2, 6-2) and 1h23 of play. Breaké at the entrance and led 0-2, the Serbian, who sometimes had trouble in front of the Italian (on clay, especially in Roland-Garros in 2021 and 2024), did not hang around to recover and behind the nine games that followed.
Subsequently, if the world 16th managed to put an end to the hemorrhage, the man with 24 Grand Slam titles did not crack and spun towards a qualification without trembling for the quarter -finals of Miami Masters 1000. Author of his best match in Florida, the world number 5 is gaining momentum, after two unequal meetings against Rinky Hijikata and Camilo Ugo Carabelli. In the next round, Djokovic will now challenge Sebastian Korda, who eliminated Gaël Monfils … and then forfeit for double because of a concern in the right wrist. Case to follow.
Fritz has an appointment with berrettini in quarters
In the other night meetings at Hard Rock Stadium,
Matteo Berrettini created a small sensation by leaving Alex de Minaur in two sets (6-3, 7-6) and 2h01 of play.
After a fairly quiet first round, the second was much more animated with six of the set balls to save for the Italian, which ended up getting out of it in the decisive game on his 5th match ball (9-7).
After being slowed down by injury, the current 30th world will see the quarter -finals of Miami Masters 1000. At the gates of the last square, Berrettini will be opposed to Taylor Fritz, who was eliminated from the 2nd round last year. Winner of Adam Walton (89th in the world) in two sets (6-3, 7-5) and 1h35 of play, the American ended the beautiful course of the Australian.
Finally, the last 8th finals, which opposes Alexander Zverev to Arthur son, will take place this Wednesday evening. As a reminder, the winner will face the Czech Jakub Mensik (54th), who took advantage of the Tomas Machac package to join the quarter -finals.
