Arthur Fils will not lose points when leaving this Miami Open 2026, something that is appreciated after having been away from the courts for more than eight months. He achieves this because, at the very least, he will reach the quarterfinals again after defeating Valentin Vacherot in a closely contested round of 16 match, which he won 6-4, 6-7(4), 6-4, after two hours and fifteen minutes. In this way, the Frenchman will compete for a spot in the semifinals against the winner of the match between Tomás Martín Etcheverry and Tommy Paul.
