Novak Djokovic is finding a higher gear in South Florida after a sluggish start to 2025. Djokovic, gunning for his seventh Miami Open title, dispatched American Sebastian Korda 6-3, 7-6 (7-4) Thursday in one hour,

The American got revenge against Monfils in the round of 16 on Tuesday. After losing to the 38-year-old in Indian Wells, Korda overcame an injury and hours of delays to beat Monfils 6-4 2-6 6-4 at the Miami Open.

Novak Djokovic and Sebastian Korda’s quarter-final match at the Miami Open failed to materialise on Wednesday evening as organisers’ scheduling decision backfired. Five matches were set to take place on the showpiece Stadium Court at the Hard Rock Stadium on day nine of the joint ATP-WTA 1000 tournament in Florida.
