The Czech teenager Jakub Mensik won the title in the ATP tournament in Miami when he defeated Novak Djokovic in straight sets in the final, 7–6 (7–4), 7–6 (7–4).

The 38-year-old Djokovic, who has 24 Grand Slam titles in his baggage, had finally found his form after a shaky start to the year and got the chance to take home his 100th singles title in his career.

But it didn't happen. Instead, the 19-year-old Mensik, ranked 54 in the world, managed to lay his hands on his first ATP title ever.
