MIAMI - Indian Wells champion Dominic Thiem’s bid for a ‘Sunshine Slam’ met with a quick end as he fell 6-4 6-4 to Hubert Hurkacz in the Miami Open second round on Friday, while world number one Novak Djokovic wasted little time in dispatching Bernard Tomic.
Austrian Thiem, who beat Roger Federer on Sunday to win his first career Masters 1000 title at the BNP Paribas Open, was uncharacteristically sloppy on the Grandstand court. “He definitely raised his level second and third sets. He wasn’t missing much like in the first set. He served well in the end,” said Nishikori.Nishikori, playing in his first match since falling in the third round at Indian Wells last week, had his serve broken five times during the match.
Djokovic needed just over an hour to brush aside Australian Tomic 7-6 6-2 and advance to the third round of a tournament he has won six times. The Serb improved his record to 6-0 against Tomic.
