Milos Raonic won’t return to tennis until he’s 100%.

Roger Federer, Juan Martin del Potro and Stan Wawrinka all advanced Saturday at Miami.

“I’m not necessarily in the best position right now, but fortunately it’s a long tournament,” Raonic said. “Doesn’t mean things can’t change and I can’t get better throughout this event.”

Seeds open on Friday in Miami.

Milos Raonic has withdrawn from Indian Wells.

“I’m sure Milos would have loved to play, but you’ve got to look ahead with some big tournaments coming up,” said Sock, who improved to an 11-1 win-loss record and will move to a career-high rank of No. 18.

“He beat me two weeks ago in Brisbane, so I decided to go more inside the court on the return,” Nadal said. “I knew there were going to be tough moments in the match, he has one of the top two serves on the tour and he’s able to play so aggressive on the return.”

“[Raonic] beat me a couple weeks ago,” Nadal said. “He’s a player with an amazing serve.”

Any questions regarding Nadal’s fitness were answered Saturday, while the teenager ended up cramping in the fifth set.

“There was intensity, of course,” Djokovic said. “We played four-and-a-half hours.”

“Obviously it’s not the greatest thing to hear,” Kyrgios said of the jeers. “I didn’t have the best preparation coming into the Australian Open. Pretty banged up, my body. I don’t even know what the score was in the end. Was it 10-8? 10-8 in the fifth, getting booed off, definitely not the best feeling.”
