After a long journey home, I\u2019m delighted to put an orange bow on the Miami Open with parting thoughts on the tournament, as well as a few other notes from recent happenings in the world of tennis. <\/p>\n

The Miami Open is a fun tournament\u2014in an undoubtedly unique and strange venue, for both better and worse\u2014and it was great to be back there for the first time in four years, and for the first time for Bounces.<\/p>\n
