Miami Open 2023: Alcaraz takes out Bagnis in style and more results from the ATP Round 2 matches

Miami Open defending champion Carlos Alcaraz began his sunshine double pursuit in style by defeating Facundo Bagnis 6-0, 6-2 to secure his third round spot.

His opening set 6-0 victory against Bagnis in Miami is his first bagel in the first set at ATP Masters 1000 level.

Alcaraz, who won the Indian Wells title a week ago, is the favourite to successfully defend his Miami Open title in the absence of Novak Djokovic.

The world No.1 will now face unseeded Lajovic in the third round.
