Berrettini nearly fainted during the match against Murray.

American tennis player Matteo Berrettini, a former world number six, was stunned and nearly fainted during the second set of his match against Andy Murray in the first round of the Miami Open.

The incident occurred in the eighth game of the second set, when Berrettini was trailing 2-5 and preparing to serve. The Italian player lost his balance and had to brace himself against the court to avoid falling. He then wiped his eyes and moved to the休息 area. Both the umpire and his opponent Andy Murray appeared concerned, but Berrettini signaled that he was fine.

Berrettini was stunned at the end of the second set.

The hot and humid weather in Miami is believed to have caused Berretini to collapse. Earlier, young tennis player Arthur Cazaux fainted during a match against Harold Mayot and had to leave the court in a wheelchair. The French player spent the night in the hospital to stabilize his blood pressure and heart rate.

Berrettini's condition was less severe than Cazaux's. He had his blood pressure checked by the doctor right on the court, drank water and energy gels, and then returned to the court. However, Berrettini couldn't perform at his best. He lost 6-4, 3-6, 4-6 and was eliminated from the tournament after his opening match.

Berrettini has struggled with injuries for almost two years. He hasn't won an ATP Tour title in the last 20 months. The 2021 Wimbledon finalist recently broke up with his girlfriend Melissa Satta to focus on his career. He reached the Challenger final in Phoenix last week but lost to Nuno Borges.

Murray will play in the second round against 29th seed Tomas Etcheverry. Another notable match in this round will be between two one-handed left-handed players, Denis Shapovalov and Stefanos Tsitsipas.

The top seeds of the Miami Open receive a bye in the first round. Those competing today include Jannik Sinner, the defending runner-up and second seed, Andrey Rublev, Tommy Paul, and Daniil Medvdev.
