Front242 said:Two things, firstly as far as I recall he's never yet won Miami, so surely he'd like to and secondly, he has yet to defend a non clay title in his whole career to date. Two reasons to surely want to win here. And the third reason is no world number 1 and possible GOAT should even contemplate losing early in a masters 1000. He'd surely like to build on weeks at number 1 and losing early isn't the way to improve that. Failing to ever defend a non clay title is still something he needs to eradicate as it's a black mark that's plagued him his whole career.
Play and play to win is a champion's attitude and this is how he should think when he enters any event and likely it is how he thinks.
Two questions.
1.He didn't play Miami last year, so how does defending a non-clay title factor into whether to play Miami this year?
2. He skipped Miami last year, and went on to finish #1 with 2 slams and a bunch of Masters. So wouldn't you say skipping Miami worked out pretty well for him last year?
