Rain already causing havoc in Miami: The Central Court will not be able to be used on the first day of competition
A significant mess will be made at the Miami Open 2026 on the first day of competition. The announcement from the American tournament has left many stunned: the use of the Central Court, built in the Hard Rock Stadium, is not possible due to weather conditions and heavy rains delaying work in different areas of the court, which means it won't be ready for Wednesday, the first day of the final draw for both men and women. The tournament plans to use it on Thursday, but it's not guaranteed either, as rain is expected to persist. Do we see trouble ahead?
Miami Open isn't using the main stadium tomorrow due to "additional preparation to ensure optimal conditions for match play."
