The phenomenon Fonseca is loose in Miami

Joao Fonseca has already submitted his candidacy to win the Miami Open 2025. The 18-year-old Brazilian took advantage of Jannik Sinner's withdrawal and Carlos Alcaraz's early exit to showcase a perfect performance against Ugo Humbert. In just 1 hour and 10 minutes, the young player dominated a solid and established opponent like the Frenchman, who had no chance (6-4 6-3). His numbers were more than surprising, as Joao captured 96% of points played with his first serve (26/27) and 79% with the second. Additionally, he won 70% of points when Humbert played with a second serve. Spectacular. In the third round, Joao Fonseca will face Alex De Miñaur or Bu Yunchaokete.

Fonseca provides the keys to continue improving as a tennis player

Joao Fonseca aims high at 18 and is fully aware of what he needs to keep progressing. He expressed this in a talk before the Miami Open 2025. "The difference when you enter the top 100 is the consistency and the mental aspect. I know I need to improve physically, but it's just a matter of time. I feel much better than a year ago when I was very thin and hadn't developed muscles. It's my first time competing consistently in new tournaments, and gaining experience will be crucial for strengthening my mindset," he stated.

Joao Fonseca debuts new coach in Miami

Joao Fonseca continues to take giant steps to become one of the best tennis players of the moment sooner rather than later. The Brazilian is already ranked 61st and after winning the ATP 250 in Buenos Aires and the Phoenix Challenger in less than a month, he arrives at the Miami Open with the goal of continuing to progress. And to achieve that, he has decided to reform his technical team. Starting from this tournament in Florida, the young man from Rio de Janeiro will have Franco Davin on his 'staff'. It is worth noting that the Argentine coach coached Juan Martin Del Potro when he won the US Open in 2009 and also had Christian Garin and Fran Cerundolo as his students.
