Delpo: I Need To Get Better For Kei

Juan Martin del Potro extended his winning streak to 12 matches with a 6-4, 5-7, 6-2 win over Robin Haase to kick off his quest to complete the ‘Sunshine Double’ at the Miami Open on Friday night. But things won’t get any easier for the the World No. 6 Argentine, who last week won his first ATP World Tour Masters 1000 title in Indian Wells.

Djokovic: 'Life Goes On'

Novak Djokovic has seemingly always found a way to play great tennis. It’s how he got to No. 1 in the ATP Rankings and occupied the top spot for 223 weeks during his career.

But after losing to World No. 231 Mitchell Krueger at the BNP Paribas Open, he did not have much momentum arriving in Miami.

Cilic Clicks, Moves On In Miami

Marin Cilic has not had it easy since advancing to the Australian Open final (l. to Federer), his second Grand Slam championship match in the past three majors (also 2017 Wimbledon). The World No. 3 lost in the second round at the Rio Open presented by Claro and the third round at the BNP Paribas Open. Outside of Melbourne Park, the Croatian had gone 4-4 this year. But Cilic took a step in the right direction on Thursday afternoon by defeating Frenchman Pierre-Hugues Herbert 7-5, 6-3 at the Miami Open presented by Itau to earn his 10th victory at the event. It is an important triumph for the World No. 3, who had lost four of his past five matches...
