ATP, WTA Miami Open presented by Itau
Here we are, Miami is happening. Sadly, a lot of no shows on the men's side
(no Big Four Three Four in Miami, which is a first since the Precambrian). Some are already
gearing up for the clay. Some are feeling uncomfortable about the whole C19
thing. Some have health issues due to the weirdness of these last seasons.
For the women is better - just Serena is out from the top 20.
