Liam Draxl is into the Miami main draw following a three set win over Jay Clarke. He joins Felix, Denis, and Gabe. Great to see.

Miami should be permanently cancelled and there should be a Masters 1000 event on grass...Who's with me?

I think it would be great as there should be a grass 1000 but a hard ask for tour players to transition from IW hardcourt, to grass, then to clay season.

So just Shapo today for Canadian players?

Move Wimbledon and everything back 1 month and have a grass masters 1000

Yeah, something along those lines, IW is fine where it is on the calendar and the weather is generally good, but this Miami tourney is usually plagued with bad weather and it's played in a football stadium, it is generally regarded as the worst Masters 1000 tourney. We already have enough Masters 1000 on hard courts, either eliminate it or make it a 500 and make Queen's Club a 1000 prior to Wimbledon.

The entire day might be washed away...
