Amazing Agassi, Rios' Rise & Big Three Classics: 10 Memorable Miami Moments

Celebrating 30 years of ATP Masters 1000 tournaments, ATPTour.com looks back on 10 memorable moments from Miami since 1990
Normally at this is the time of season, the Tour heads to the sun and sand of Miami, Florida. But due to the global COVID-19 pandemic this year, ATPTour.com reflects on some of the magic at one of the ATP Tour's lynch-pin events, the Miami Open presented by Itau, in celebration of the 30th anniversary of ATP Masters 1000 tournaments.
Butch Buchholz, a former executive director of the ATP, and his brother, Cliff, originally wanted to make the Miami Open presented by Itau the first major tournament of the year, dubbed ‘Winter Wimbledon’ (at a time when the Australian Open was played in December). The first event held in February 1985 at Laver's International Tennis Resort in Delray Beach was won by Tim Mayotte, before the tournament moved for a year to Boca Raton and then to it’s long-term location of the Crandon Park Tennis Center in Key Biscayne off Miami from 1987 to 2018. Expanding to a 96-player field in 1999, the multi-week tournament relocated to the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, last year.
ATPTour.com looks back on 10 memorable moments from Miami since 1990.
1991: Courier Completes First ‘Sunshine Double’
Jim Courier, the possessor of a fine forehand allied to superior physical conditioning, became the first of seven players (to date) to complete the BNP Paribas Open and Miami Open presented by Itau title double in the same season, on his inextricable rise to No. 1 in the FedEx ATP Rankings 10 months later. Having started March 1991 at No. 23 in the FedEx ATP Rankings, Courier’s physical and high-intensity power play helped him to beat Guy Forget 4-6, 6-3, 4-6, 6-3, 7-6 in Indian Wells for just his second tour-level title, and then a win over then World No. 1 Stefan Edberg in Miami en route to a 4-6, 6-4, 6-3 victory over David Wheaton in the final. It helped him return to the Top 10. Michael Chang (1992), Pete Sampras (1994), Marcelo Rios (1998), Andre Agassi (2001), Roger Federer (2005-06, 2017) and Novak Djokovic (2011, 2014, 2015, 2016) have since completed the ‘Sunshine Double’.
1994: Sampras Makes Lazarus-like Recovery, Wins Delayed Final
In his first final under the guidance of coach Brad Gilbert, Agassi walked into the locker room prior to the 1994 final at the Crandon Park Tennis Center to find Sampras on the floor. Agassi, who at No. 31 in the FedEx ATP Rankings was at his lowest position since November 1987, had beaten the likes of Boris Becker and Stefan Edberg during the tournament, and agreed to delay the final by one hour in order to give Sampras more time to recover. Defending champion Sampras, who had been given an IV by a doctor, jumped out to a 5-1 lead, and while Agassi recovered, there was no let up. Sampras won 5-7, 6-3, 6-3 in two hours and 15 minutes and went on to lift a personal-best 10 tour-level trophies that season.
1997: Muster’s Redemption
Less than two hours after beating Yannick Noah for a place in the 1989 Miami final, Muster was getting a bag out of his courtesy car outside Bayside Marketplace, when a drunk driver — on the wrong side of the road — struck head-on, pushing the parked car into Muster's left leg. Muster, unable to play the final the next day against Ivan Lendl, flew back to Vienna and underwent surgery on two ligaments that were severed. With the aid of a specially designed chair, which allowed him to hit balls while recovering from the surgery, Muster returned to tennis six months later. He would eventually capture the Miami title in 1997, beating Sergi Bruguera 7-6(6), 6-3, 6-1. “This is great justice for me,” says Muster, after lifting the biggest hard-court trophy of his career. He'd beaten Grant Stafford, a young Tommy Haas, Alex Corretja, Jonas Bjorkman and Jim Courier en route to the final.
1998: Rios Rise To No. 1
In the space of 20 extraordinary days, the pony-tailed Rios harnessed not only his natural talent, but also a so-far untapped mental resolve to play some of the best tennis of his career and capture the Indian Wells-Miami title double. A feat achieved, at that point, by only a trio of Americans: Courier (1991), Chang (1992) and Sampras (1994). Rios, who had started March 939 points behind World No. 1 Sampras, beat Greg Rusedski 6-3, 6-7(15), 7-6(4), 6-4 in the BNP Paribas Open final. In a sun-kissed 29 March final, the third seed competed nerve-free against three-time former champion Agassi, who had risen from No. 141 to No. 22 in just eight events and led the Tour with a 24-3 start on the season. Rios’ path to glory, including his 7-5, 6-3, 6-4 victory over Agassi that knocked off Sampras at No. 1 in the FedEx ATP Rankings after 102 consecutive weeks, triggered rapturous celebrations on the streets of Chile, a nation that had witnessed every match live on television.
Agassi
2003: Agassi Wins Third Straight Miami Crown, Sixth Overall
Agassi always enjoyed appearing in Miami ever since his first match — a first-round loss to Muster — as a 17-year-old in 1987. The American would go on to compile a 61-13 record at the tournament, highlighted by appearing in his first ATP Masters 1000 final in 1990; recording the 700th victory of his illustrious career over a young Federer in the 2002 final and, the following year, bettering the five Key Biscayne titles of his wife, Steffi Graff, with a 6-3, 6-3 victory over Carlos Moya. One-month shy of his 33rd birthday, having missed Indian Wells due to a right shoulder injury, he'd beaten Younes El Aynaoui (quarter-finals), Albert Costa (semi-finals) and Moya in as many days. Agassi also won a tournament record 19 straight matches in Miami from a first-round win over Taylor Dent in 2001 until he lost to Agustin Calleri in the 2004 fourth round. Agassi’s six Miami titles (also 1990, 1995-96, 2001 and 2002) have since been equalled by Djokovic, the 2007, 2011-12, 2014-16 champion.
2005: Federer & Nadal Meet For First Time In A Final
As a 17-year-old, Rafael Nadal had beaten Federer in the 2004 third round, and he had everything in control in his first Masters 1000 final at 6-2, 7-6(4), 4-1 one year later. Federer, who was two points from losing in the 10th game of the third set and also at 3/5 in the tie-break, recovered for his 18th consecutive victory in tour-level finals — and his 22nd victory in a row. "It was a very equal match," said Nadal, after their second career meeting. "In the end it didn't happen for me." The 2-6, 6-7(4), 7-6(5), 6-3, 6-1 win, over three hours and 42 minutes, was only the second time that Federer had recovered from 0-2 sets down. "I really didn't expect to turn it around really," said Federer. "I haven't dug out many matches in my career and to dig it out against Nadal, I'm extremely happy - and exhausted." It was their second of a legendary 40-match series (Nadal currently leads 24-16).
2007: Djokovic Wins First Masters 1000 Title
Fresh-faced and with spiky hair, 19-year-old Djokovic blitzed through the Miami field without dropping a set, beating qualifier Guillermo Canas 6-3, 6-2, 6-4 for his first ATP Masters 1000 trophy. "Every time you win something, or you are the youngest player, or you make any record, I mean, it certainly feels great," said Djokovic, the youngest champion in the 23-year history of the tournament. "It means that your name is in the history of the sport. I am very proud of that. I know that I worked hard throughout all my career to reach this point, and I hope that this is just the beginning of a long career." Djokovic, who moved from No. 10 to No. 7 in the FedEx ATP Rankings as a result of winning the fourth title of his career, also beat Nadal for the first time, 6-3, 6-4, in the Miami quarter-finals.
2011: Djokovic Remains Perfect After Classic Final
Djokovic came into the 2011 final having not lost his serve all tournament, but that didn’t last long against then-World No. 1 Nadal, who mastered the windy conditions in the early stages and looked to avenge his Indian Wells loss two weeks earlier. In one of the most electrifying finals in Miami tournament history, Djokovic tightened up his defence and counter-punching game to upend Nadal 4-6, 6-3, 7-6(4) over three hours and 21 minutes. "It was very close, and it really could have gone either way," said Djokovic, who completed the first of his four Indian Wells-Miami title doubles. "It was one of the best finals I ever played in in my life." It improved Djokovic’s perfect winning streak to 24 matches on the season. "What Novak is doing at the start of this season is something difficult to repeat, so well done to him and his team," said Nadal. "Today I had some good chances, but Novak was too good for me this afternoon." Djokovic compiled a 41-match winning streak that year.
Federer/Kyrgios
2017: The Match Of The Year In Miami
Federer and Nick Kyrgios may have opposite temperaments and playing styles, but they came together in the 2017 semi-finals to put on one of the finest matches of the year. Federer saved set points and Kyrgios saved match points in front of a standing-room only crowd, but it was the fourth seed who ultimately came out on top over Kyrgios in their semi-final clash 7-6(9), 6-7(9), 7-6(5). “It did feel very good, because you don't very often play three breakers in a match. It's nice to win those and winning breakers is always such a thrill,” said Federer, after the encounter that lasted three hours and 10 minutes. “It's great winning this way, especially because I remember the loss against him a couple of years ago. It was rough [in Madrid on 6 May 2015]. It was the birthday of my boys [Leo and Lenny]. I wasn't with them and had that match, so it was nice to get this one tonight.” Their previous meeting at the 2015 Mutua Madrid Open had produced a similar scoreline, with Kyrgios saving two match points in a 6-7(2), 7-6(5), 7-6(12) victory.
2019: Welcome To The Hard Rock Stadium...
After 32 editions, it was farewell to Crandon Park in March 2018. The following year, James Blake, the former World No. 4 turned-Miami Tournament Director, welcomed the tennis world to the home of the Miami Dolphins, where 11 of the 29 permanent tennis courts had been built on the Hard Rock Stadium’s southern parking lots. A new face, qualifier and World No. 53 Felix Auger-Aliassime became the tournament’s youngest-ever semi-finalist on his Miami debut and he was also the first teenager to reach the semi-finals since Djokovic beat Andy Murray (both 19) in 2007. But the title match pitted a familiar face in three-time former winner Federer against 33-year-old defending champion John Isner, who was riding an 11-match winning streak in Miami. Federer won 6-1, 6-4 in his 50th ATP Masters 1000 final, becoming the event’s oldest champion at 37 years and 235 days, to start a new chapter for the prestigious tournament.

Federer v Kyrgios: The Miami Classic That Cemented A Rivalry

ATPTour.com looks back at the classic second meeting between Federer and Kyrgios
After spending six months away from the ATP Tour in 2016 to recover from knee surgery, Roger Federer made a stunning return to action in 2017.
The Swiss turned back the clock in his return event at the Australian Open, beating Stan Wawrinka and Rafael Nadal in back-to-back five-set classics to capture his first Grand Slam trophy since 2012 Wimbledon and rode the momentum into the ‘Sunshine Double’ events of Indian Wells and Miami.

After taking the title in the Californian desert, Federer arrived in Miami with a third trophy of the year in sight and the early signs were encouraging. The 18-time Grand Slam champion moved past Frances Tiafoe, Juan Martin del Potro and Roberto Bautista Agut in straight sets to reach the quarter-finals and saved two match points against Tomas Berdych in a final-set tie-break to reach the last four. It left just one man standing between him and a place in the final. A man he had yet to beat.

That man was Aussie sensation Nick Kyrgios. The 21-year-old Canberra native had defeated Federer in three tie-break sets to win their maiden ATP Head2Head encounter almost two years prior at the 2015 Mutua Madrid Open. The pair were due to meet two weeks earlier in Indian Wells, until food poisoning forced Kyrgios to withdraw from their quarter-final clash. Luckily for tennis fans around the world, nothing got in the way of a rivalry-defining classic in Miami.
In a fascinating showcase of attacking tennis, Federer and Kyrgios produced the 2017 ATP Match of the Year. Federer saved set points and Kyrgios saved match points, but it was the Swiss who ultimately claimed his place in the final with a 7-6(9), 6-7(9), 7-6(5) triumph after three hours and 11 minutes.
“It did feel very good, because you don't very often play three tie-breaks in a match. It's nice to win those and winning tie-breaks is always such a thrill,” said Federer. “It's great winning this way, especially because I remember the loss against him a few years ago. It was rough. It was the birthday of my boys. I wasn't with them and had that match, so it was nice to get this one tonight.”
Federer/Kyrgios
A standing-room only crowd came out to Crandon Park to watch two of the most exciting players on the ATP Tour do battle, and they weren’t shy about letting their feelings be known. Whether it was giving a standing ovation for a between-the-legs winner from Kyrgios or chanting Roger’s name, their enthusiasm prompted the umpire to call for quiet on multiple occasions during the match.
After failing to convert three set points, Federer trusted his backhand and held his nerve in the tie-break to save set points at 7/8 and 8/9. The Aussie’s penchant for going for broke at crucial moments of the match may have cost him the opening set. He rolled the dice on a big second serve at 9/9 and missed badly, handing Federer a third set point. The Swiss star made good on his chance, wrapping up the set as Kyrgios sent a backhand into the doubles alley.
The drama remained at maximum level in the second-set tie-break, as Federer committed errors on two match points. Kyrgios wouldn’t allow Federer another opportunity, firing an ace at 10/9 and looking to his box in celebration after forcing a decider.

A sixth straight tie-break followed for Federer and Kyrgios, with the crowd on their feet to applaud the efforts of both players. Kyrgios didn’t learn his lesson from the first set, gambling with a 128 mph second serve at 5/5 and ultimately hitting a double fault for his most costly shot of the night. Kyrgios’ risk proved to be Federer’s reward, with the 35-year-old firing a big first serve to complete the win.
“I showed a lot of fight,” said Kyrgios. “Obviously I'm an emotional guy. I had some ups and downs, a bit of a roller coaster, but ultimately I think I put in a good performance.”
After winning back-to-back third-set tie-breaks in the same tournament for the third time in his career (2005 Dubai, 2001 Rome), Federer claimed his third ‘Sunshine Double’ with a straight sets victory against Rafael Nadal in the championship match.
Since leaving the court in Miami, Federer has triumphed in three further final-set tie-breaks against Kyrgios and now owns a 6-1 ATP Head2Head record against the Aussie. The pair’s second encounter will be remembered for many reasons, but perhaps most of all as the moment when two men cemented an exciting new ATP Tour rivalry and Federer turned it in his favour.

The Swiss star made good on his chance, wrapping up the set as Kyrgios sent a backhand into the doubles alley.
The drama remained at maximum level in the second-set tie-break, as Federer committed errors on two match points. Kyrgios wouldn’t allow Federer another opportunity, firing an ace at 10/9 and looking to his box in celebration after forcing a decider.

A sixth straight tie-break followed for Federer and Kyrgios, with the crowd on their feet to applaud the efforts of both players. Kyrgios didn’t learn his lesson from the first set, gambling with a 128 mph second serve at 5/5 and ultimately hitting a double fault for his most costly shot of the night. Kyrgios’ risk proved to be Federer’s reward, with the 35-year-old firing a big first serve to complete the win.
“I showed a lot of fight,” said Kyrgios. “Obviously I'm an emotional guy. I had some ups and downs, a bit of a roller coaster, but ultimately I think I put in a good performance.”
After winning back-to-back third-set tie-breaks in the same tournament for the third time in his career (2005 Dubai, 2001 Rome), Federer claimed his third ‘Sunshine Double’ with a straight sets victory against Rafael Nadal in the championship match.
Since leaving the court in Miami, Federer has triumphed in three further final-set tie-breaks against Kyrgios and now owns a 6-1 ATP Head2Head record against the Aussie. The pair’s second encounter will be remembered for many reasons, but perhaps most of all as the moment when two men cemented an exciting new ATP Tour rivalry and Federer turned it in his favour.

Celebrating 30 years of ATP Masters 1000 tournaments, ATPTour.com relives some of the key moments from 1990 to 2019 in Miami
With no action from the Miami Open presented by Itau this year, due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, ATPTour.com has taken the time to reflect on some of the greatest moments in the tournament’s history as we celebrate 30 years of ATP Masters 1000 tennis.
From 1990 to 2019, here are some of the key milestones from Miami:
One Year Ago, 2019: Federer Begins New Era With Fourth Crown
After 32 editions at Crandon Park, the Miami Open presented by Itau made its debut at Hard Rock Stadium in 2019. Having fallen to Thanasi Kokkinakis in his opening match of the tournament in 2018, three-time champion Roger Federer narrowly avoided the same fate in 2019 with a 4-6, 7-5, 6-3 comeback win against Radu Albot. It would be the closest anyone would get to a victory against the Swiss.
From that moment, Federer raised his game at the home of the Miami Dolphins. The 103-time tour-level champion, chasing his second Miami crown in three years (2017), secured straight-sets victories against Filip Krajinovic, Daniil Medvedev, Kevin Anderson and Denis Shapovalov to reach his fifth final at the Masters 1000 event (3-1).

Across the net stood defending champion John Isner, who won nine of his 10 sets in tie-breaks to advance to the championship match without dropping a set. No tie-breaks were required in the championship match, as Federer broke serve on four occasions to claim his fourth Miami crown after 64 minutes.
"What a week it's been for me. I'm just so happy right now. It's unbelievable,” said Federer. “I played here in 1999 for the first time and here I am in 2019. It means a lot to me."
Five Years Ago, 2015: Djokovic Makes History
Novak Djokovic continued his remarkable start to the 2015 ATP Tour season in Miami, earning another piece of history by becoming the first man to complete the ‘Sunshine Double’ on three occasions.
Fresh from his victory against Roger Federer in the Indian Wells championship match, Djokovic survived three-set battles against Martin Klizan and Alexandr Dolgopolov to reach the quarter-finals in Florida. Straight-sets victories against 2013 runner-up David Ferrer and John Isner earned the World No. 1 a spot in the final, where he faced two-time champion Andy Murray for the trophy.
Djokovic and Murray were meeting for the third time in 2015, after Djokovic’s victories against the Brit in the Australian Open final and the Indian Wells semi-finals. The result would prove the same in Miami, as the 6’2” right-hander raced through a deciding set to secure his fifth Miami title with a 7-6(3), 4-6, 6-0 triumph.
"I'm trying to enjoy the moment and also utilise this time of my career where I'm probably playing the tennis of my life… I am aware that this cannot go forever,” said Djokovic. “There is going to be eventually a change of generations, some players that are going to start playing better and be stronger."
10 Years Ago, 2010: Roddick’s Final Masters 1000 Title
Two weeks after falling to Ivan Ljubicic in the Indian Wells final, Andy Roddick captured his fifth and final Masters 1000 trophy in Miami in 2010. The 2004 champion, who opened the year with a title in Brisbane, overcame three Top 40 opponents en route to a semi-final showdown with Rafael Nadal.
After dropping the opening set to the Spaniard, who also entered Miami after a loss to Ljubicic in the Californian desert, Roddick claimed three service breaks in the following two sets to book a final meeting against Tomas Berdych. Berdych entered the final in great form, having beaten Roger Federer, Fernando Verdasco and Robin Soderling in consecutive matches to earn a third clash of the year against the American.
But Roddick, as he had in Brisbane and San Jose, proved too strong. The former World No. 1 did not face a break point in the championship match, taking the title with a 7-5, 6-4 win.
Roddick’s success in Miami would prove a reference point for years to come, with the next 69 Masters 1000 titles being collected by European champions. The streak was eventually ended by fellow American Jack Sock at the 2017 Rolex Paris Masters.
20 Years Ago, 2000: New Millennium, Same Sampras
After a quarter-final loss to Thomas Enqvist in Indian Wells, Pete Sampras arrived in Miami searching for his first title of the 2000 ATP Tour season. Sampras, who began his year with a semi-final run at the Australian Open (l. to Agassi), beat Top 20 stars Greg Rusedski and Nicolas Lapentti to earn a semi-final clash against rising star Lleyton Hewitt.
Searching for a fourth title of 2000, Hewitt managed to force Sampras into a deciding set before the World No. 2 raced clear to claim a 6-3, 3-6, 6-1 win and a place in the final against Gustavo Kuerten. Having dropped just five games to beat World No. 1 Andre Agassi in the semi-finals, the Brazilian was attempting to capture his first Masters 1000 trophy on hard courts.
Sampras served with great consistency throughout the three-hour, 18-minute final, dropping serve just once to edge Kuerten 6-1, 6-7(2), 7-6(5), 7-6(8). Like Roddick in 2010, it would prove to be the final Masters 1000 trophy of Sampras’ career. The 6’1” American claimed two further titles during his career — at 2000 Wimbledon and the 2002 US Open — before hanging up his racquet.
30 Years Ago, 1990: Agassi Makes His Breakthrough
The 1990 edition of the event marked a significant breakthrough for a rising star in American tennis and the beginning of a new chapter in the history of the tournament.
A 19-year-old Andre Agassi arrived at Crandon Park seeking his first Masters 1000 crown and a 10th ATP Tour title just two weeks after falling to Stefan Edberg in a four-set Indian Wells final. Agassi was forced to recover from a set down in three consecutive matches against Top 20 members Andres Gomez, Jim Courier and Jay Berger to reach his first of eight Miami championship matches (6-2).
Like Indian Wells, his final opponent was Edberg. The Swede entered the contest on a 10-match winning streak and had won each of his previous two ATP Head2Head meetings against the American. But Agassi earned a 6-1, 6-4, 0-6, 6-2 win to claim the first of a record six Miami trophies between 1990 and 2003. The American, who ended his career with six wins from nine ATP Head2Head clashes against Edberg, still holds the record for tournament victories in Miami alongside fellow six-time winner Djokovic.
