What Is The Miami Open And Format
Butch Buchholz, a former player who served as executive director of the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) in the 1980s, founded the tournament. He dubbed the event “Winter Wimbledon” because he wanted it to be the first big international tournament of the year.
The event was quickly relocated to Boca West. In 1987, Merrett Stierheim, the manager of Dade County and president of the Women’s Tennis Association (WTA), aided Buchholz in bringing the event to its long-term home in Key Biscayne for 1988.
Following that, in November 2017, the Miami Open and Miami-Dade County decided to move the annual tournament from Key Biscayne’s tennis facilities to Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida, effective in 2019.
This tournament was played on a hard (laykold) outdoor. Laykold is a tennis hardcourt brand that is built on asphalt or concrete basis. It’s available with or without a cushion layer or Laykold Cushion Plus for improved force reduction and player lifetime.
This tournament is part of the ATP Tour Masters 1000 men’s tournament. The Miami Open is typically held in March or April. The ATP Masters 1000 events, formerly known as the ATP Masters Series are an annual series of nine tennis tournaments featuring the world’s top-ranked players.
Apart from the four Majors, the Miami Open is one of the few ATP events featuring the main singles draw of more than 64 players for men, with main draw play lasting more than one week.
