Wawa out in R1 in 3 sets to Machac. I'm thinking this might be Stan's last trip to the desert as well.

Folowing Arthur Fils opening victory along with Jakub Mensik, Shang Juncheng and Alex Michelsen, it is the first time 4 teenagers have won at a single ATP Masters 1000 event since Indian Wells in 2019

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Now they are hoping for play to be resume at 8.45pm?

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Match has just recommenced Raonic v Nagal, Raonic 1st set 63

 

[Fiero425]

How did they fix the draw to "trick" the eye by putting a guy named "Nagal" opposite Raonic? I thought it was a tape at 1st filling the rain delay!

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Raonic d Nagel 63 63

Jannik wins the last 9 games to defeat Kokkinakis 63 60, Jannik really lifted his level in the 2nd set, 1st set was very competitive, and not indictive of the score line, . 21 W and 7 UFE for Jannik
16 consecutive wins, 13-0 in 2024
Jannik Forza!
( BTW there were Carota woman in the stand wearing orange wigs LOL )
Jannik now has equaled Andriano Panatta for the longest winning streak of 16 consecutive wins, of an Italian ATP player

Murray was able to stay close in the first set. Rublev lifted his level in the second set. Nicely done.

Mensik with the break. Let’s see if he can consolidate to win the set. Big Ben continues to exhibit faulty choices when it counts.

Yes he did and won the 1st set 64, Ben and his high risk return choices? I feel like a broken record, for the life of me why cant his dad see and try to correct, or get Ben to show more patience and build and put pressure on the server with his return game, it is soooo frustrating.
Ben will have to go to the scenic route if he wants to win, quite frankly I am over watching him,

Yes. Agreed. He won the 2nd set. It’s just not pleasing or easy to watch.
