Novak Djokovic had arrived in Miami with many doubts, especially after a very poor performance against Botic van de Zandschulp in the second round of the Indian Wells Masters 1000. The former world No. 1 necessarily needed a strong reaction, and his performance in the first three matches in Florida induced optimism.

Novak Djokovic won 12 of the last 14 games of his match against Lorenzo Musetti to crush the Italian 6-2 6-2 and move into the quarter-finals of the Miami Open in his best performance since the Australian Open.

Novak Djokovic cruised past Lorenzo Musetti 6-2 6-2 to reach the quarter-finals of the Miami Open. The match was delayed because of rain and world number five Djokovic, who has won six Miami titles, started slowly and was broken in the opening game as Italy's Musetti opened up a 2-0 lead.
