[HoopGirl]

Andy’s just won again in doubles with S Korda - this should help his confidence greatly!

[exislander]

Dan through 1-6 6-3 6-4 well done!

[pabbers]

Fantastic match. So pleased for him.

[Stell]

Well done to Andy and (Sebastian) Korda.

[cazza99]

Now says no tennis before 6.00 pm UK time. However forecast not good until tomorrow evening.

[pabbers]

Groan.

[cazza99]

No tennis before 7.00 pm now.

[cazza99]

Sky commentators think 7.00 pm could be optimistic and looks unlikely.

[cazza99]

Miami open twitter X page says not before 8.30 now.

[cazza99]

All doubles matches cancelled for the day.

Revised oop - ht tps://s42493.pcdn.co/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/OP.22.24.2.pdf

[cazza99]

Sky commentators are saying they are expecting players on the courts in the next 10 minutes or so. Courts being dried but no guarantee it won't start raining again.

[cazza99]

Still raining so no play yet.

oop for Saturday - ht tps://s42493.pcdn.co/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/OP.23.24.pdf

Jack 1st on Court 2 at 3.00 pm

Andy 2nd on Butch Buchholtz

Cameron 3rd on Court 6

Dan 4th on Court 1

Katy 4th on Butch Buchholtz

[cazza99]

a 4.30 pm (UK time ) update on the Miami twitter X page says no play before 5.30 pm UK time (1.30 Miami time)

[cazza99]

Courts are being cleared. So hopefully play will start soon.

oop has been slightly revised but not up on their website yet.

[cazza99]

Jack Draper's match has started.

[Hawkeye]

Jack lost the first set, but has levelled things up. 6-7(9) 6-4.

[Hawkeye]

Jack served for the match but was broken. 5-5.

[cazza99]

Jack struggling with his health. Into a tiebreak now.

[cazza99]

Jack lost.

Cameron starting soon. :)

[JAMES4578]

yes pity for Jack, long match (3 hours 33) and got away from him in the end.

[Hawkeye]

Cam won, but a tough loss for Dan in a third set TB.

[pabbers]

Dan.....:crying:

[cazza99]

I fell asleep with TV on and woke up and Katie's match and Dan's were on at the same time.

i subscribed to NOW TV just for a month so I can watch the women's as well as the men's. NOW took the streams of Dan and Katie's matches down frm their menu partway through the matches. I was flicking between them. Grrrrrrrrrr.

[cazza99]

Yup tough loss for Dan. Dan had 2 match points, one on his serve, in the final tiebreaker. There was some noisy crowd behind Chris Eubanks.

[cazza99]

Well done Katie Boulter :clap:

[JAMES4578]

certainly pity for Dan, hoped Cameron would do it in straights but got there in the end! Great for Katie but was not able to view that.

[cazza99]

oop for Monday - h ttps://s42493.pcdn.co/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/OP.25.24.pdf

Andy playing doubles with Korda - 5th match on Court 1 (after 1 ATP and 3 ATP doubles matches)

Katie playing Azarenka - 3rd on Butch Buchholz

[JAMES4578]

Wonder if Andy will still play the Doubles mind you(though seems no news otherwise yet), depends how the ankle is. Not too surprising that Medvedev put out Norrie in straights, hopefully Katie plays well.

[cazza99]

Latest estimated time for Katie's match is around 6.30. Previous match is 4-1 in first set.

[exislander]

The German pair get a walkover to beat Andy/Seb. Hope the ankle is not too bad.

[Genbrit]

Looks like Andy/Korda have withdrawn from doubles, showing a walkover on Order of play. Can't find anything else about it at the moment. Sad but not really surprised.

[JAMES4578]

A pity for Andy but likely for the best.

[HoopGirl]

Hope his ankle is okay and he can play the rest of the season as he wants

[JAMES4578]

Sinner certainly bounced back taking the Miami title over Dimitrov 6-3,6-1, Medvedev could only take 3 games in the semi! Dimitrov had put out Alcaraz in straights and Zverev 6-4 in the 3rd. Whilst Dimitrov had a few great matches Carlos not in the form for shot at the Sunshine Double and Jannik the player in the ascendacy, amazing shotmaking!
