Rain Delays at Miami Open: Sinner's Matches Affected

There is no peace at the Miami ATP with the match of Jannik Sinner against Griekspoor which was suspended due to rain for 50 minutes. It is already the second time that a match of the Italian world number 2 has been stopped due to bad weather in this American tournament in Florida. The previous encounter with Vavassori had already been postponed due to weather conditions that in recent days have not been so favorable. Initially scheduled for Friday afternoon Italian time, Jannik's first round was then postponed to Saturday evening, with the rain allowing the continuation of the match which was postponed by more than 24 hours. Sinner-Vavassori suspended due to rain at 3-2, the bad weather gives no respite to the Miami Open. Despite the initial uncertainty about the resumption of the match, the game resumed with the sun returning to shine on the Miami court. Shortly after the rain stopped, the ball boys returned to the field followed by the technicians with dryers. Attention then mainly focused on the white lines, which are the ones that become more slippery after bad weather. Finally, after a wait of about 50 minutes, the players returned to the field to warm up and resume the match.
