BNP Paribas Open, Indian Wells, CA, 2025 - ATP Masters 1000

[MargaretMcAleer]

Alcaraz too good for Dimitrov in the 1st set 61, Dimitrov will have to raise his game to be able to just compete with Alcaraz in this match.
BTW very windy conditions and Alcaraz is handling the conditions with ease in the 1st set.
Alcaraz dismantles Dimitrov 61 61 in very difficult windy conditions!
Alcaraz has his eyes on the 3 peat at IW! well done!

Shelton vs. Draper is a really intriguing matchup. Alcaraz, Rune, and Fils winning would be a great result for the future of men's tennis.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Rune has lost his previous 2 matches aginst Griekspoor as far as I know?

Actually this is their first meeting on a HC, Tallon won both previous meetings on clay, Madrid 2024, Hamburg 2022.

Rune over Griekspoor, Medvedev over Fils, Draper over Shelton, Alcaraz over Cerundolo.

Rune over Medvedev, Draper over Alcaraz.

Rune over Draper.

You heard it here first.

 

[PhiEaglesfan712]

My picks for today:

Rune
Fils
Shelton
Alcaraz

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

The most pleasing aspect of Rune's game at IW so far is his composure and patience on court
I hope he stays with Lars Christensen I feel he brings out the best in Rune
Well done Rune to get to the SFs 57 60 63
Tallon had a solid run to the QFs, but met his match today against Rune

Getting rid of Simon is working well for Daniil. I think the French poisoned his mind to play ultra defensive tennis. This now is looking more like Medvedev we are used to see.

Well Simon never did a thing for Meddy when he was co coach at all except turning him into a 'pusher'

Yrs but you wrote in the text I answered that Rune was up 2-0 against Griekspoor..

 

[lomaha]

Well Meddy lost the edge of that match pretty quick...

What? Tallon had a 2-0 H2h against Rune, both on clay, Madrid and Hamburg I am correct, this was their first meeting on a HC,go and google what is the h2h between Rune and Griekspoor and you will get your information okay, thats what I do with all of the H2H's I post okay

Don Fabio,
I thought this match would go 3 sets Meddy and Fils though I still think Meddy will win

I think so too. It's terrible out there, so much wind.

[kskate2]

Fils is just a ball basher. How many points did he donate in this final set?
