Miami Open venue

The Miami Open has taken place at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida, since the 2019 season having previously been held at Crandon Park, in Key Biscayne, from 1987 to 2018.

Best known as the home of the Miami Dolphins NFL team, the main stadium houses the temporary 13,800-seat Stadium Court for the duration of the event, while a 5,000-seater Grandstand also handles high-profile matches.

The transformed venue features 27 courts in total - 10 for competition and 17 for practice.

Miami Open history

The Miami Open was founded in 1985 with both men's and women's tournaments staged in Delray Beach, where it lasted a year before moving to Boca West for the 1986 tournament.

Key Biscayne would become the long-term venue for the event in 1987, but an unsuccessful bid to upgrade Crandon Park led to a move to the Hard Rock Stadium in 2019.

A host of stars have won this event with Andre Agassi and Novak Djokovic (six titles) the joint-most successful in the men's tournament, while Serena Williams has won the women's title on a remarkable eight occasions.

Seven male players have won the Sunshine double - Indian Wells and Miami in the same season - with Roger Federer the most recent winner of both in 2017, while four women have achieved the feat, including Iga Swiatek in 2022.
