When was the last time an American Male won the Miami Open? Spoiler

[malaise]

Isner just won - what a disgusting smash racket display by Zverev.

So Americans (Sloane Stephens) and John Isner take this one. Off to Europe now.

1. Found it - Roddick 2010

He also won in 2004 and no American won between 2005 and 2010.

2. Good job, John. If only he were NOT a Trump supporter. Nt

4. I was thinking about that because I share your view

During the presentation ceremony he spoke about living in James Blake's home in Florida for months when he moved there, and that James was at his wedding (James is the tournament director - same James Blake the NY cops nearly shot during the US open a few years ago). He couldn't believe that his good friend was now running the tournament.
Seems Isner is more complicated than I thought for he is clearly not a racist.

7. Unfortunately, from what Ive read, most of

The white male American tennis players are Trump supporters. I suppose that it has to do with their being in the white male demographic, which as a group leans Trump, and some are in the higher income ranges and don’t want to pay tax. Several are from the southern states that also lean Republican. Obviously many individual exceptions exist and some of them are on DU, but I’m talking about group tendencies.

What’s sad in John’s case is that he seems like a nice guy and his father ran for office as a Dem several years ago.

10. Valid point

but I did read that Isner was a Trump supporter. Of course many won't admit to that these days.

I really wish the site didn’t mess up punctuation in titles entered from phones. I guess it was related to site security.
