The ‘Sunshine Double’ is one of the most difficult events on the tennis calendar. Players have to acclimatize to the difficult weather during back-to-back tournaments in Indian Wells and Miami. Moreover, the temperatures during the tournament can go up drastically, making it physically difficult for players to compete in the hot climate.

During the tournament in Miami this year, players competed in a fun ‘MiniMic’ contest. The stars were asked about how many holes a straw has. The question received hilarious responses from the athletes.
