The ⁠38-year-old Serb pulled out of the clay-court event ‌after also withdrawing from the ‌ongoing Miami Open ‌with ⁠a right shoulder ⁠injury.

The 35-year-old, who reached a career-high ranking of world number seven in 2017, won six titles on the ATP Tour and reached nine other finals.

The court will be available for both ATP and WTA players between April 23 and 30, a period during which Real Madrid has no home matches scheduled.

The match marked the first time outside the WTA Finals that the world’s two top-ranked players met before a final since Martina Hingis and Jana Novotna in the 1998 US Open semifinals.

The American world number four made a slow start as ‌Muchova broke immediately to take the opening game, but ‌that proved to be the ‌Czech’s ⁠only moment of clarity.

Jannik Sinner was barely ‌troubled, dropping nine points on serve before sealing the win ‌in 71 minutes to reach ‌the ⁠last four in Miami for ⁠the fourth time in his career.

Tsurenko sued over the alleged failure to uphold a promise to ban ‌Russian and Belarusian players who supported the war, and prohibit “conduct ‌detrimental” ⁠to the tour and the game’s integrity.

Aryna Sabalenka and Elena Rybakina, ranked first and second in the world, had previously clashed in the Australian Open 2026, where the latter had the last laugh.

The 22-year-old ⁠beat Bencic 6-3 1-6 6-3 on Tuesday, advancing to the last four after failing to ‌progress beyond the fourth round in her previous six attempts.

The win extended Karolina Muchova’s excellent run, having now ⁠reached the fourth round or better at all five ⁠tournaments she has played in 2026.
