What do Andre Agassi, Novak Djokovic, Serena Williams and Steffi Graf all have in common? They have the most consecutive titles won at the Miami Open.
While Agassi, Williams and Graf have since retired from the pros, as the 2024 Miami Open gets underway March 17-31 at Hard Rock Stadium, a whole new generation of tennis players is preparing to hit the courts.
The two-week tennis tournament, which brings in players from around the world, got its start in 1985 in Delray Beach. The following year it moved to Boca West. Following its success there, it relocated to Crandon Park on Key Biscayne, where it remained until 2018.
In 2019, it moved from the aging facility to Miami Gardens where the Miami Dolphins play, providing more parking and better amenities. It’s also had several names over the years and has only been known as the Miami Open, presented by Itaú since 2015.
The Miami Open isn’t just about tennis, though. There’s plenty of other entertainment, lots of food and adult beverages and big screens so you don’t miss a beat.
Last year, an estimated 386,000 fans attended, making it one of the largest tennis competitions outside the four Grand Slam tournaments.
Tennis legend Novak Djokovic and Iga Swiatek (currently at the top of the WTA rankings) will headline this year’s event.
