Indian Wells 2019

[DUN I LOVE]

Djokovic z Fogninim zdobyli 44 pkt przy 62 Bopanny i Shapovalova, a i tak wygrali. Uroki braku przewag i grania super tie-breaka w deciderze. Wystarczy coś pograć przy ważnych punktach i można skończyć zwycięsko.

Generalnie uroki tenisowego liczenia punktów.


Mam nadzieję, że coś niebawem wstrząśnie tym turniejem, bo zapowiada się jeszcze nudniej niż w poprzednich latach.

Djokovic, Zverev Feature At Indian Wells On Monday; Schedule & Stats

Spoiler:

Thiem, Raonic, Monfils also feature in third-round play

Five-time former champion Novak Djokovic looks to extend his record of 50 match wins at the BNP Paribas Open (50-8 overall) on Monday when he challenges German Philipp Kohlschreiber on Stadium 1 in their third-round match. The World No 1, who has won eight of their nine FedEx ATP Head2Head meetings — including three in Indian Wells (2008, 2010 and 2016) — will be wary of Kohlschreiber, who knocked out Nick Kyrgios, the recent Abierto Mexicano Telcel presentado por HSBC titlist (d. A. Zverev), in the second round. Djokovic is 11-1 on the year, including a record seventh Australian Open crown (d. Nadal) in January.

Third seed Alexander Zverev, a winner of three ATP Masters 1000 trophies, aims to improve his 4-0 record against fellow German Jan-Lennard Struff in the second match on Stadium 1. Milos Raonic, the 2016 finalist and No. 13 seed, begins play on the main show court against 25-year-old wild card Marcos Giron, a winner over Jeremy Chardy and Alex de Minaur in the opening two rounds.

Over on Stadium 2, 18-year-old Canadian Felix Auger-Aliassime, fresh off his first Top 10 win over Stefanos Tsitsipas and at a career-high No. 58 in the ATP Rankings, will try to reach the fourth round at an ATP Masters 1000 tournament for the first time when he takes on Japan’s Yoshihito Nishioka. Meanwhile, France’s Gael Monfils, the No. 18 seed and 2016 quarter-finalist, who has gotten off to a fine start in 2019 with a 13-3 record — including the ABN AMRO World Tennis Tournament title — takes a 2-0 FedEx ATP Head2Head lead into his clash against Albert Ramos-Vinolas of Spain.

Elsewhere, in the final match on Stadium 3, seventh-seeded Austrian Dominic Thiem attempts to record his eighth straight win in his 11th meeting against No. 27 seed Gilles Simon of France.

STATS OF THE DAY

Alexander Zverev has reached the quarter-finals at 11 ATP Masters 1000 events in his career, going on to win three ATP Masters 1000 titles (2017 Rome, Montreal and 2018 Madrid), but has yet to reach the final eight in Indian Wells. View Zverev's ATP Masters 1000 Record
Gael Monfils’s title at the ABN AMRO World Tennis Tournament last month was only his second singles title at ATP 500 level of his eight singles titles in total. Monfils has advanced to three ATP Masters 1000 finals at the 2009 and 2010 Rolex Paris Masters and at the 2016 Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters.
Marcos Giron, who received a wild card into the qualifying field, has now won back-to-back matches in an ATP Tour main draw for the first time in his career. The World No. 217 is also the lowest-ranked player to reach the Indian Wells third round since No. 239 Ivo Karlovic in 2011. Read Feature
The 40-year-old Karlovic became the oldest match winner at an ATP Masters 1000 event in series history (since 1990) when he won his first-round match over Matthew Ebden on Thursday. He quickly broke his own record, two days later, with an upset of his countryman, No. 11 seed Borna Coric, in the second round. Read Feature
Philipp Kohlschreiber reached his fifth and most recent ATP Masters 1000 quarter-final at Indian Wells last year (his first came at Madrid in 2007). He has yet to reach an ATP Masters 1000 semi-final (0-5 in QF matches).
In his first-ever ATP Masters 1000 main draw appearance, Prajnesh Gunneswaran has reached the third round as a qualifier. It is the second year in a row that an Indian qualifier has made the third round of the BNP Paribas Open – Yuki Bhambri pulled off the same feat in 2018. Read Feature
Laslo Djere and Felix Auger-Aliassime both contested their first ATP Tour singles final at the Rio Open presented by Claro last month, with Djere capturing the title. Both now find themselves into the third round at Indian Wells, while holding career-high ATP Rankings: Djere at No. 32 and Auger-Aliassime at No. 58.

[Kamileki]

Mam nadzieję, że coś niebawem wstrząśnie tym turniejem, bo zapowiada się jeszcze nudniej niż w poprzednich latach.

Wstrząs? Albot - Federer na horyzoncie. Innej szansy na rozruszanie tego turnieju nie widzę.

[DUN I LOVE]

Przy obecnej formie obu raczej Roger sobie nie pogra.

Mam nadzieję, że Zverev i FAA dziś się nie wygłupią.

[Kamileki]

Obawiam się o Augera.

[DUN I LOVE]

Jeżeli zagra swoje, będzie spora szansa na kolejny akt rywalizacji Aliassime - Djere.

[Kamileki]

Kecmanović nie musi przegrać.

[DUN I LOVE]

Owszem, nie musi. Ciekawe jednak, czy jest już gotowy na poważniejszy run z LL przy nazwisku. Niby systematyczny progres, a od początku roku jednak lekka stagnacja. Czas pokaże.

[Damian]

Raonic wraca z 1-4 w trzecim.

Spoiler:

[Federasta20]

Karlovic w IV rundzie, nie wiem czy śmiać się czy płakać Jego przeciwnik to w ogóle niezły random.

W tym samym czasie Zworek przegrywa I seta ze Struffem. Czuć młodość.

[Damian]

Karlovic staje się najstarszym zawodnikiem od czasu występu Connorsa w San Francisco'93, który wygrywa 3 mecze w jednym turnieju ATP.

Spoiler:

[Kamileki]

Gdyby nie Djokovic to Ivo miałby realne szanse na finał. Przerażająco absurdalna sytuacja męskiego tenisa

[Robertinho]

Dobrze jednak, że ten Dupaj był, bo chyba tenisem będzie się można ponownie zainteresować w okolicznych trawiastych kurników.

[Kiefer]

Dobrze jednak, że ten Dupaj był, bo chyba tenisem będzie się można ponownie zainteresować w okolicznych trawiastych kurników.

Dubaj, Acapulco, Marsylia... prawdziwy tenis jest w kurnikach.

[Robertinho]

Nie wiem co jest Zworkowi, ale chyba dziś na kort wychodzić nie powinien.

[Federasta20]

Zworek

Poczekajmy na ocenę choćby do potencjalnego starcia Nadala z Daniłem. Miło, że Hubert zalicza postępy.

[DUN I LOVE]

Dobrze, że lubię Struffiego.

[Damian]

Trzecie zwycięstwo Niemca nad graczem z Top-10 (Bercy'16 vs Wawrinka, Tokio'18 vs Cilic).

Miomir usadza Bartoszka w mtt, ehehehe.
