The great unknown to be resolved in the world of tennis seems to have been uncovered, according to the information from the newspaper L´Equipe that places an already defined calendar for weeks 8-13 of the tennis season. After the ATP made official days after the French newspaper announced the events that would be played in the first two months of competition, it is logical to give full credibility to this information, of which only official confirmation would remain. Indian Wells 2021 It does not appear on the calendar and everything indicates that it will be canceled, although there is a possibility that it will be relocated after the US Open 2021. What is clear is that this season the Miami Open 2021 It will be the first Masters 1000 to be played this year, between March 24 and April 4.
In order to democratize the dispute of the tournament and offer alternatives to all players, the ATP has designed a mini South American tour on clay in which the tournaments played in Córdoba, Buenos Aires and Santiago de Chile, highlighting the disappearance of Rio de Janeiro from the forecasts. In those same weeks, it will be played on European indoor fast courts, with Montpellier, Rotterdam and Marseille like stations on a journey that will lead all players to the ATP 500 from Dubai and Acapulco, disputed the same week.
Both will be the ideal place to prepare the assault on the Miami Open 2021, which will be played for a total of 12 days, keeping its original date on the calendar. After the event held in Florida if the health situation allows it, something for which a bubble similar to that experienced in New York in August is already being worked on, the European tour on clay would start, with the Houston and Marrakech tournaments before the carousel of great tournaments begins.
