Competing at the Miami Open requires adjustments that may not be obvious from the stands. “You’ve got to be really on top of your hydration,” he explains. “The humidity is pretty brutal out there. And just make sure you conserve as much energy as you can while you’re off the court, so you’re able to compete for a long time.” Managing recovery is part of that discipline. “I try to stick to a routine,” he says. “Get to bed at the same time, not be on your phone or any technology too close to going to sleep. And making sure you’ve had enough time to digest your food before bed as well.” Away from competition, his routine shifts but remains simple. “I like driving classic cars. I like the ocean. I like finding coffee shops. I just enjoy exploring the city I’m in.” In Miami, that balance between intensity and routine has produced steady results. His best run at the tournament came in 2022, when he reached the quarterfinals. Photos/Courtesy of Alex de Minaur Roman/Instagram
