Iga Swiatek of Poland and Carlos Alcaraz Garfia of Spain are the winners of the 2022 Miami Open. The finals were played at Hard Rock Stadium, which is home of the Miami Dolphins in the National Football League.

Swiatek steamrolled past Naomi Osaka of Japan 6-4, 6-0 in the women’s final on Saturday. This was Osaka’s first final since winning the 2021 Australian Open, and she was completely steamrolled by her opponent. Swiatek broke Osaka four times in the match. In fact, Swiatek broke Osaka the same number of times as Osaka won games.

It has been quite the year for the new world number one. She beat Anett Kontaveit of Estonia in the final of the 2022 Qatar Open, 6-2, 6-0, and then beat Maria Sakkari of Greece in the final of Indian Wells, 6-4, 6-1. In the third set of three finals so far in 2022, Swiatek has only lost one game.



Swiatek also became only the fourth women’s player ever to win Indian Wells and Miami in the same season. She is joined by Steffi Graf of Germany (1994 and 1996), Kim Clijsters of Belgium (2005), and Viktoria Azarenka of Belarus (2016).

In the men’s final, Alcaraz Garfia defeated Casper Ruud of Norway 7-5, 6-4, for his first Masters 1000 title. Interestingly, he becomes the first Spaniard to ever win at Miami. In the past, Spaniards were 0-8 in losing in the Miami Open final. Rafael Nadal has happened to lose the Miami Open final five times, including twice to Roger Federer. At only 18 years of age, Alcaraz Garfia is starting to become tennis’s new breakout star.
