Defending champion Hubert Hurkacz will take on Carlos Alcaraz in a semifinal showdown at the 2022 Miami Open on Friday. Hurkacz began his title defense against Arthur Rinderknech, winning in straight sets. He then brushed off Aslan Karatsev and Lloyd Harris in straight sets to square off against top seed Daniil Medvedev in the quarterfinal. He beat Medvedev 7-6(7), 6-3. He has also been competing in doubles in Miami and has reached the final alongside John Isner. Teenage sensation Alcaraz continues his meteoric rise. The Spaniard has continued his fine run of form in Miami by beating the likes of Marton Fucsovics, 2014 US Open winner Marin Cilic and World No. 5 Stefanos Tsitsipas. Alcaraz bested Miomir Kecmanovic in a gruelling, three set match to reach the semis.
