Cilic Shows Strong Resilience
Marin Cilic reached the third round in Miami with wins over Alexei Popyrin and Brandon Nakashima. He came back from a set down and saved a match point against Nakashima.
This is a timely boost after back-to-back opening-round exits in Delray Beach and Indian Wells. Earlier in the season, he showed form with a semifinal in Dallas and a third-round run at the Australian Open.
Cilic had not recorded multiple Masters main-draw wins since 2022 before this week. He holds a 4-4 record in Miami third-round matches, with his most recent appearance ending in a loss to Carlos Alcaraz in 2022.
