Sun, Grit, and Golden Moments at 2026 Miami Open

Carroten brought the sunshine indoors at the 2026 Miami Open, hosting a suite experience at Hard Rock Stadium on March 26 as the tournament’s biggest day of tennis unfolded on the courts below.

The day opened with the men’s quarterfinals, headlined by a marquee matchup between world No. 2 Jannik Sinner and home favorite Frances Tiafoe. Sinner was clinical from the first game, breaking Tiafoe’s serve early and never letting up, cruising to a 6-2, 6-2 victory in just over an hour. It was the kind of performance that reminded the Hard Rock Stadium crowd exactly why Sinner is the man to beat in 2026.

The afternoon then gave way to the women’s semi-finals, where the action was equally compelling. Coco Gauff, playing in front of a passionate home crowd, dismantled Karolina Muchova 6-1, 6-1 in a display that was as dominant as it was efficient. Gauff broke back immediately after Muchova’s early break and never looked back, with the Czech racking up 17 unforced errors in the first set alone.

The second women’s semi-final was a historic occasion. The match between world No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka and No. 2 Elena Rybakina marked the first time since the 1998 US Open that the top two players in the world met before the final outside of the WTA Finals. Sabalenka came through 6-4, 6-3, continuing a flawless run through the draw without dropping a single set.

The tournament also marked a significant off-court milestone. World No. 6 Amanda Anisimova arrived in Miami as the newly announced Global Brand Ambassador for Carroten, Greece’s No. 1 suncare brand, and her run to the fourth round turned heads in what has been the best stretch of her career. Founded in Greece over 30 years ago, Carroten has built its reputation around innovative tanning and suncare formulas that blend hydration with visible glow, and has been expanding rapidly in the US market since launching stateside in 2025. Anisimova’s story of stepping away from the sport to prioritize her mental health before returning stronger is a natural fit for a brand rooted in balance, confidence, and time well spent outdoors.

On Saturday, Sabalenka closed out the tournament with a 6-2, 4-6, 6-3 victory over Gauff in the final, defending her Miami Open title and completing the coveted Sunshine Double. She became only the fifth woman to achieve the feat, joining an exclusive group that includes Iga Swiatek, Victoria Azarenka, Kim Clijsters, and Steffi Graf. Gauff, playing in her first Miami final at her hometown tournament, pushed the world No. 1 to three sets and had the packed Hard Rock Stadium crowd behind her throughout, but Sabalenka proved too strong when it mattered most. The Belarusian improved to 23-1 on the year, her only loss coming at the hands of Elena Rybakina in the Australian Open final.
