Miami Open presented by Itaú — March 29 Update
Mar 30, 2025
World No.1 Aryna Sabalenka claimed her maiden Miami Open presented by Itaú title with a 75 62 victory over American Jessica Pegula. Sabalenka lived up to her top seed billing in Miami, not dropping a set en route to the title. In a final that featured multiple breaks of serve in the first set, Sabalenka was able to assert her dominance in the second set, and now leads the head-to-head between the two players 7-2, including their last three meetings. The Miami Open title takes the World No.1 career singles title tally to 19 and is her second title of 2025.
World No.1 duo Marcelo Arevalo and Mate Pavic completed the Sunshine Double adding the Miami Open presented by Itaú title to the ATP Masters 1000 Indian Wells title they won earlier this month. They are only the fifth pair to complete the double, and the first since 2016. The top seeds overcame British pair Julian Cash and Lloyd Glasspool 76(3) 63 in a final briefly interrupted by rain.
Novak Djokovic will attempt to complete the quest for his 100th ATP title on Sunday when he takes on Czech teenager Jakub Mensik in the ATP Singles Final at 3pm. The gulf in experience between the two could not be more stark with Djokovic playing his 60th ATP Masters 1000 Final whilst Mensik will play his first. The only previous meeting of the two players was at the ATP Masters 1000 Shanghai in October 2024 which Djokovic won 67(4) 61 64.
Cristina Bucsa from Spain and Miyu Kato from Japan will take on Mirra Andreeva and Diana Shnaiderin the WTA Doubles final at 12.30pm Sunday. The final will be the first meeting for the two pairs. Bucsa and Kato knocked out top seeds Taylor Townsend and Katerina Siniakova in the semifinal but will have tough competition for the title from Andreeva and Shnaider who currently sit third in the PIF Race to the WTA Finals in doubles.
Meanwhile, The Publix Padel Cup culminates on Sunday with action starting at 11.15am on Courts 8 & 9.
