2025 Miami Open ATP Entry List: Alcaraz, Djokovic, Kyrgios & More

The second event of the Sunshine Double will be the 2025 Miami Open, running from March 19th until March 30th. Fans at the tournament can look forward to a superb ATP entry list in Florida.

There is guaranteed to be a new champion at this year's Miami Open. Jannik Sinner won last year's iteration of the Masters 1000 event but is suspended until May after reaching a case settlement in his doping case.

The massive controversy caused by Sinner's case settlement means the story may not be out of the headlines by the time the Miami Open starts next month. However, fans will be able to watch many other superb players at the tournament.

Novak Djokovic is set to return to the tournament. The 24-time Grand Slam champion has not competed at the Miami Open since 2019, demonstrating how he chose to play fewer tournaments to prioritize the four majors.

He took that decision despite being a six-time champion at the tournament. The conditions in Florida suit Djokovic's game perfectly, and the stands will undoubtedly be packed for his first appearance in Miami in six years.

Djokovic will hope to have played well at the 2025 Indian Wells Open before the event in Miami. He lost his first match since the 2025 Australian Open at this week's 2025 Qatar Open, falling to Matteo Berrettini.

Carlos Alcaraz has fond memories of the Miami Open. The Spaniard won his first Masters 1000 title there in 2022, besting Casper Ruud in the final. He was just 18 years old during that superb run to glory.

The two-time Wimbledon winner lost to Sinner in 2023 before surprisingly being demolished by Grigor Dimitrov in last year's quarterfinal. Dimitrov went all the way to the final before being beaten by Sinner.

Although Alcaraz would never admit it publicly, he may fancy his chances of winning a second Miami Open title more because of Sinner's absence since the Italian has undoubtedly been the best hardcourt player in the world since the start of 2024.

Alexander Zverev could be the No. 1 seed in Miami in place of Sinner. The German also has the opportunity to overtake him as the world No. 1 if his results are good enough before Sinner returns.

This year's Australian Open runner-up has never won the Miami Open. The closest he came was losing the 2018 final to John Isner, who claimed his only Masters 1000 title during that iteration of the tournament.

Home favorite Ben Shelton will try to bring his electrifying brand of tennis to next month's Miami Open. The US Open and Australian Open semifinalist lost in the round of 32 last year against Lorenzo Musetti.

Jack Draper is another young star on the entry list. The Briton can trouble anyone in the draw if his powerful and athletic game is in full flow, as proven by his win against Alcaraz at last year's grass court tournament at the Queen's Club.

Fans in Miami could get fireworks because of Nick Kyrgios' place on the entry list. The 29-year-old returned to Grand Slam singles action at the Australian Open but said he does not expect to play singles in Melbourne again because of consistent injuries.

Taylor Fritz, Daniil Medvedev, Casper Ruud, Stefanos Tsitsipas, Holger Rune, Denis Shapovalov, and Frances Tiafoe are other players on the entry list.
