Zverev suffered a surprising defeat by Ruusuvuori, World number 83, in the Miami Open, losing 1-6, 6-3, 6-1 to the Ruusuvuori.
This surprising defeat happened at the Miami Open tennis tournament.
Zverev is a great tennis talent but he still seems to lack consistency and stability in the game.
It will probably come with more experience in tennis matches.

I'm glad I took Simona Halep last night as I had some big emotions when I saw her getting called for a doctor because of the pain at shoulders, but after that massage she managed to comeback and win the game but to be honest, Garcia really played well and she deserved at some point to win but you also need to have that desire to close the game instead of giving another chance for opponent to comeback.
I hope this tourney will tight the WTA difference in ranks as Barty have too many points to be catch by anyone anytime soon
Osaka really shines lately and I think she has the best position to catch Barty.

@slaman29 this is an excellent chance for these 3 to step up their game, and show to the world that they’re ready to replace the big 3. Also I’m spoiled for choices as all 3 player’s look good, but I personally feel that Zverev has a good chance and then followed by Medvedev.
Some mid table favorites went out yesterday including Anderson and Chardy, so yeah definitely looks better and better every day that passes and the big 3 will be eyeing all the later rounds to see who they might have to meet up in the next Grand Slam.
Still haven't decided to take any outcome yet:) Good luck to you!
It is supposed to help them since they have to play less games to win tournament but all those other guys already have at least one match under their belt. Don't be surprised if some of the favorites have a rocky start today.
I think this is why we see so many upsets in these tournaments over the years because the players that play through the whole tournament can have some what of an advantage on how the surface is playing and also by having match fitness while the top players need to wait for the later rounds.

Since the big 3 will be out of the Miami Open, who do think that has a good chance to win this tournament? It's going to be a good opportunity for others in the top 10 to break in the winning column here.
For one, Medvedev should be a good candidate here and so is Zverev and Tsitsipas. But there are also a lot of good players in this pandemic, outside of the top 5 or top 10 that can pull a surprise here.
Medvedev now is the number two player not only in the ranking but in his performance too and i think that he is the most favorite one along side rublev and zverev but we could see some unexpected players as well like karatsev who has climbed the ranks quickly and he is performing very well or bautista agut who has gained some of his previous form and he is though to beat.For one, Medvedev should be a good candidate here and so is Zverev and Tsitsipas.

Yes, this is a great opportunity for young players to win this tournament, especially if look at the list of champions, none of them have ever won this tournament, from the list of players who played in this tournament only John Isner has ever won it.

D. Thiem has the same chance as the list you have mentioned, it's just that this year he hasn't shown a good performance. Aslan Karatsev might come back to give surprises to the top players because at the moment he is still showing a nice performance.
Is Asian Karatsev in this tournament? If yes, as the top 3 or even consider it top 4 including Murray not entering the Miami Open, I would like the chances of Karatsev here as the big underdog to even reach the finals.
Top 3 will be Medvedev and then Zverev who just won the Mexico leg beating Tsitsipas. And there could be no names breaking into this tournament and pull a giant killing.
Till this day the match results are still in accordance with the predictions that no top player has lost yet
Well it does open up the doors for a young up and comer to win the Miami Open as it has been dominated by Djokovic and Federer over the years so lets see which young talent can win. If Medvedev can reach the finals, he will extend he's lead over Nadal in the rankings as it is a ATP master 1000 event. I'm liking Tsitsipas to reach the final and hopefully he can get the win at a major tournament.

I think that there is a high chance that both zverev and tsitsipas will reach the final of this tournament. If this happens it would be a rematch of the final of acapulco which zverev won 2-0.
But on their way to the final there are a lot of other strong players that they need to beat first. Medvedev as you mentioned, but also Dimitrov, Fognini, Bautista Augut, Goffin, Schwartzmann and many more.
Even if the Big 3 are not participating there are still a lot of top players in this tournament.

I didn't know they weren't all playing, looking at the outrights markets here now the favorite is clearly Medvedev at 3.5x but I would definitely be looking at Tsitsipas for over 10x. Maybe even someone like Nishikori at 66x:)
But maybe the better outrights are Zverev verses Tsitsipas? (Who goes furthest).

a bit of topic, but one Serbian model Natalija Scekic, claims that someone contacted her to seduce Novak and film a hidden tape about that, to ruin him
https://www.marca.com/en/lifestyle/album/2021/03/22/605898b8268e3eb9188b456b.html
do you think that it is her self-promotion, or there is some true behind all of this?

Hard to tell, Djokovic is number one, so it make sense for someone or some group to target him to bring him down as what @vella85. He is too dominant as this point that no one can touches him. And besides he is chasing Roger Federer's record here.
But it's hard to see who is the people behind, unless Natalija Scekic pointed out the finger, in any case this will be a big scandal in tennis and I think this is the first time that we have heard this kind of allegations.
I get the feeling that people are trying to bring Djokovic down and I think that its because he is fast approaching Nadal and Federer. It just seems strange to me that we are seeing this a lot now when it comes to Djokovic. What do you guys think? Are forces out there trying to bring him down because it does seem that way to me but the thing is that it just makes him even more stronger and determined to win and be the best.

It seems that this is a big scam with the aim of attracting attention and popularity, and increasing the number of followers on Instagram.
In the days following this news, Natalia reached 19,000 followers on Instagram, which was probably the ultimate goal.
Her mother Anabela is known as a participant in numerous reality shows and now apparently her daughter has decided to steal her "5 minutes of fame".
Today, the Croatian online portal Index wrote extensively about this latest affair and obvious fraud: https://www.index.hr/sport/clanak/manekenka-kojoj-je-ponudjen-novac-da-spava-s-djokovicem-znate-li-vi-tko-je-on/2263629.aspx
Djokovic is a big star in Serbia, a famous athlete and obviously many are trying to use him for their selfish goals and profit.
I hope this affair will not affect his tennis results in the coming weeks and months.
This story with a girl who is being offered money to seduce Djokovic and have sex with him will probably be quickly forgotten and will be replaced by some other affair later, as is always the case.

Latest news from Mexico:
''Alexander Zverev beat Stefanos Tsitsipas 6-4 7-6 (7-3) to win his 14th ATP Tour title''
British pair Ken and Neal Skupski win doubles title.
There is no information about new earthquakes, it seems that all tennis matches ended in peace today
An interesting tennis week in Mexico, anyway.

Yeah, actually I put a bet on Tsitsipas juicy odds when he lost the first set and I thought he will come back, and he did actually but it was not enough to beat Zverev.
It was really an interesting tennis week for us, it's just that my boy didn't win the title. But we will see, there's a lot of tournaments in the next coming months and we do hope that there's no more earthquake at least to affect any games.
I think that we are seeing some improvement from Tsitsipas when it comes to fighting back in matches but he just can't seem to win consistently when coming from behind. I'm interested to see how well he does in the clay court season, I'm hoping to see him make more finals and become a more consistent player heading into Wimbledon. Anyway congrats to Zverev on winning he's 14th ATP tour title.
