The Miami Open is expected to have sunny skies today following two days of intense rain, providing a new beginning for players like Ben Shelton and Coco Gauff, whose matches were impacted by the erratic Florida storm previously. Over the last couple of days, the rain that hit the hard-rock stadium of the Miami Open resulted in delays for many important matches. As a result, various players revealed their frustration with the issue.

However, with today’s sunny weather forecast, the athletes can now heave a sigh of relief. Fans are also excited to finally watch their favorite players on the court and enjoy the thrilling matches of the Miami Open. Here’s what the weather forecast for today is!

The weather forecast revealed sunny weather with as high as 81F degrees of temperature. The chance of rain is only 6% throughout the day, and the wind would be at 10 to 20 mph. This brought smiles to the faces of various players like Coco Gauff, Ben Shelton, and Iga Swiatek, who can now continue with their matches at the Miami Open.

This came after yesterday’s upsetting news of the 10-day weather forecast for Miami, which revealed rainy weather with gusty winds. As a result, players like Jannik Sinner and Sloane Stephens did not continue with their respective matches. Ben Shelton’s clash against Martin Landaluce was also canceled for the same reason. However, his match will resume today owing to the sunny weather.

Similarly, two days ago, because of the harsh weather conditions, Coco Gauff’s match with Océane Dodin and Swiatek’s match with Linda Nosková also got suspended, leaving both the top-ranked players disappointed. Gauff also expressed her deep frustration with the issue, highlighting the pressure on-court that she endured due to the bad weather.

Gauff’s disappointment in the hectic schedules of the Miami Open due to the rainy weather

Coco Gauff criticized the organizers at the Miami Open for their unrealistic expectations from the players due to the disruption of the match because of rain. She spoke about the frustration of sitting all day in the venue, hoping that the rain would stop. Furthermore, she believed that, because of the weather forecast, the tournament organizers were providing impractical start times.

“Yeah, I was just waiting around, talked to some folks, played some games, read. It felt like a long wait. I was kind of not sure when to eat. Also, the tournament was giving us unrealistic ‘not before’ times, so that felt a little bit weird, too,” she said.

Although she ended the match victorious, the harsh weather surely made her suffer throughout the entire match. Now, as the weather improves, players are happy to get back to their game mindset without any further disruptions.
