Every year, tennis players and enthusiasts alike flock to sunny South Florida to enjoy the Miami Open, and this year, was no exception. The highly-anticipated, kick-off Miami Open Players’ Party also returned this year, held in the Miami Design District’s Paradise Plaza.
Over 200 attendees enjoyed the event, including some notable appearances by ATP and WTA players James Blake, Raquel Atawo, Carla Suarez Navarro, Viktoria Tomova, Yanina Wickmayer, Michael Elguera, Stefano Ianni, Nikola Mektic, Marin Milan, Julio Peralta, among others. Other notable guests included Faith Haslem (wife of Adonis Haslem); Mandi Miranda (Founder and Managing Director of ManMar Entertainment); Nector Nieto (Managing Director at Miami Entertainment Group); model Mari Paz; and Alexis Stoudemire (wife of Amar’e Stoudemire).
After walking the Moët & Chandon Champagne red carpet, guests enjoyed the gorgeous, indoor/outdoor rooftop space, playing table tennis on the MDD-branded tables, whilst sipping on the Cuatro Smash signature cocktail, made with Bacardi and swaying to the beats of the highly sought-after DJ Ruckus.
The tennis tournament began on Wednesday 21st March and will last until Sunday 1st April, at Crandon Park Tennis Center in Key Biscayne. For more information about the tournament, please visit the tournament website.
