With Indian Wells already in his pocket, Novak Djokovic is the overwhelming favorite to win the 2015 Miami Masters. He has an easy draw, big-match confidence and dominant tools. History comes calling once again, and as usual the only question that matters is if anyone can stop King Novak.

The Indian Wells-Miami double is accomplished when an ATP tennis champion is able to win both big tournaments over the few weeks that open spring. The two tournaments encompass the southern corners of the U.S. through sunny skies, blustery winds and what are usually two of the slower hard-court tournaments on the tour.

The double has been completed nine times since Miami became a premier event in 1985:

Jim Courier 1991

Michael Chang 1992

Pete Sampras 1994

Marcel Rios 1998

Andre Agassi 2001

Roger Federer 2005

Roger Federer 2006

Novak Djokovic 2011

Novak Djokovic 2014



Furthermore, Djokovic is now in line to repeat Federer’s “double-double,” meaning that they swept Indian Wells and Miami in two consecutive years. Furthermore, a title at Miami would give Djokovic three total years of sweeping the double.

The impressive feat does not stop here. Winning Miami could already crown Djokovic as the greatest player on slow hard courts. He’s not far away from vanquishing the likes of Federer and Andre Agassi for this honor.

It’s the kind of dominance that is now beginning to approach what Federer and Rafael Nadal have accomplished on their very best surfaces, but it still trails by many years. Consider how many titles he has won compared to Nadal on his best surface on clay and to Federer’s past dominance on fast courts:
