The second part of tennis’ Sunshine Double is live on Sky Sports over the next week or so with Britain’s Jack Draper aiming to go back-to-back in the United States.

Draper won Indian Wells on Sunday, claiming his first ATP Masters title with a 6-2 6-2 victory over Holger Rune after disposing of Carlos Alcaraz in the last four in California.

The British No 1 – who has jumped to a career-high seventh in the world rankings – will now be looking to triumph in Miami and become the first man since Roger Federer in 2017 to win both Indian Wells and the following event in Florida in the same season.

Draper will begin his campaign in round two against either Spain’s Roberto Bautista Agut or Czech player Jakub Mensik, with the entire tournament live on Sky Sports from Tuesday March 18 to Sunday March 30.

Which other Brits are involved?

Cameron Norrie joins Draper in the men’s draw and will face Bu Yunchaokete of China in the first round. If Norrie comes through that encounter, he will go on to meet 10th seed Alex de Minaur.

Jacob Fearnley and Billy Harris are also hoping to reach the tournament proper but must come through final qualifying.

In the women’s draw, Emma Raducanu and Katie Boulter will play in the first round, against Japan’s Sayaka Ishii and USA’s Peyton Stearns respectively.

Raducanu will take on eighth seed Emma Navarro if she beats Ishii, while Boulter could come up against Iga Swiatek in the last 32 if she sees off Stearns and then Elise Mertens.

Sonay Kartal – who made it to the last 16 at Indian Wells before falling to Aryna Sabalenka – and Harriet Dart were beaten in final qualifying.

Which other big names are in action?

The women’s draw includes world No 1 Sabalenka and defending Miami Open champion Danielle Collins, plus Swiatek, Coco Gauff, reigning Australian Open champion Madison Keys and last week’s Indian Wells winner Mirra Andreeva.

Andreeva upset Sabelenka 2-6 6-4 6-3 in the Indian Wells final to claim successive titles, both in 1000 events after she also triumphed in Dubai.

On the men’s side, Novak Djokovic – with coach Andy Murray by his side once again – will be aiming to rally from a second-round exit at Indian Wells.

Djokovic remains on 99 career ATP titles having not won an event since last summer’s Paris Olympics when he saw off Alcaraz in the final.

Alcaraz is also playing in Miami but world No 1 and reigning Miami Open champion Jannik Sinner is absent as he continues to serve a three-month ban so the top seed is world No 2 Alexander Zverev.
