Kyrgios commenced training on the practice courts in Miami on Monday, March 17. Fans had come in to get a glimpse of the Aussie star. However, some other fans had to find more creative ways to get a peek.

One fan went down on one knee while the other stood on their thigh allowing them to peek over the tall chain-link fence surrounding the court. The fan on the top could even be seen recording a video or clicking an image of the session with their phone. The image of these fans was shared by Kyrgios on his Instagram Story with the caption:

Kyrgios was sidelined for over two years due to a wrist injury. He underwent multiple surgeries and finally made his comeback this season to the pro tour. In his first event, the Brisbane International, he won a doubles match partnering Novak Djokovic but the duo lost in the second round.

In singles, he has been unable to pick up a win in three attempts this season. He was defeated by Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard in Brisbane 7-6(2), 6-7(4), 7-6(3). At the Australian Open, he lost in straight sets to Britain's Jacob Fearnley. Most recently, at the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells, Kyrgios had to retire mid-match due to his wrist injury flaring up.

The Serb did not publicly reply to the request. Meanwhile, Kyrgios took his request to X and extended an open invitation to "light up" the event. He wrote:

"Miami dubs anyone? Let’s light the s--- up"

The draw for the Masters 1000 event has been released and ultimately, Kyrgios' name is not there for the doubles event. In the singles, he is set to face a qualifier and the winner of their match will face 22nd seed Karen Khachanov in the second round.
