Hurkacz Makes Top 20 Debut, Mover Of Week
No. 16 Hubert Hurkacz, +21 (Career High)
Hurkacz became the first Polish man to lift an ATP Masters 1000 singles title at the Miami Open presented by Itau. The 24-year-old, whose previous best Masters 1000 result was a quarter-final run at the 2019 BNP Paribas Open, defeated five consecutive seeded opponents from the third round to collect the biggest title of his career.
Hurkacz overcame Canadians Denis Shapovalov and Milos Raonic to reach the quarter-finals, before stunning Top 4 seeds Stefanos Tsitsipas and Andrey Rublev to advance to the championship match. The Pole needed one hour and 45 minutes to overcome #NextGenATP Italian Jannik Sinner in the final and capture his second trophy of the season. Hurkacz’s run extended his unbeaten record in Florida this season to 10-0, following his triumph at the Delray Beach Open by VITACOST.com in January. Read & Watch Highlights.
