BNP Paribas Open, Indian Wells, CA, 2026 - ATP Masters 1000

You insist above that Draper likely used something in the "off season", and also note his long injury layoff, which began at the USO last fall. Yet, the articles you link here are from last year, as far back as the French Open. And Draper won IW last year, so when did this dramatic transformation happen, exactly?

Here's an article from last year also that talks about changes in regimen.

Why are you all about his supposed hair loss and his transformation off-season? You're always suspicious.

There's no supposed about it. He HAS lost tons of hair and anyone who's seen guys starting steroids, sarms or peptides that cause androgenic hair loss can see this a mile off. I'm done here 'cos the photos I posted show he's put on a ton of size that anyone can see and there are tons of articles about it online so it hasn't gone unnoticed. I like him as a player but he's definitely taken some hardcore stuff to pack on that size in a short amount of time.

Ok, get to a conclusion quick because I need to chose if I call the guy Jack, the Cheater or Jack, the Doper.

He's still Jack D. Raper.

What about the timeline. You implied it just happened. So, was is just this off-season, or last year? Also, aren't you saying he started doping after he won IW? Why would that be?

And no, he hasn't lost a ton of hair. Except the bit he shaved off. That kind of hair loss is no uncommon. Look at Sting at 25. Same widow's peak, same pattern of baldness.

Yeah but Sting is "fragile"...He is always "so lonely" and I am guessing he'll always be the "king of pain". That does a number on a guy's hair. One day you think you are "walking on the moon" , next thing you are "dreaming " and think it is the "Russians" . I mean , if you asked him he would say "it's probably me" and he is just an "Englishman in New York" but still...looks like he got you "wrapped around his finger"...

USA puts their clocks ahead 1 hour, if you are watching internationally Indian Wells starts at 5am AEDT today, instead of 6am

Tien just knocked off Shelton in 3 sets! Ben was under the weather, but pushed the match to 3 sets! Shelton was going "Andres Gomez" w/ the sliced backhand keeping him in it to the last! It went just over 2 hours! Jannik coming up vs Shapovalov! It was surprising to hear Learner's the 2nd youngest to make the 4th RD. at IW's! Just proves how tough the event has been since its inception 50 odd yrs. ago I guess!

Thank you Sinner for changing the attire to pink, from that other puke inducing color. Sinner-Shapo is like definition of consistency vs definition of inconsistency.

Maybe Sting was doping?

And he always told me it was the power of Tantric Yoga!

My good tennis Canadian friend and I were texting in Pinky v Shapo match and I texted to Shirley
" I often wonder when watching Shapo matches what he might of achieved in his career if he had a brain when he played"
Shirley replied
'That would be like the 12th wonder of the world, and it was obvious on court against Sinner today he left his brain in the locker room '
Shirley LOL! btw you have a very good young ladies player Victoria Mboko to cheer on now.

Police played a lot of Reggae in their early days. Of course they were doping.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Cobolli v Tiafoe again, I think I will follow live Gauff v Eala, before Fonseca's match starts

 

[Murat B.]

Two Canucks from Montreal duking it out. First set TB goes to...Diallo.

I hope they will still be able to discuss it over a poutine after the match.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Thank goodness I didnt watch my Italian Cobilli's match Tiafoe took him to the woodshed 61 62 that's what I call a 'woodshed beating Moxie"

 

[PhiEaglesfan712]

V. Vacherot's moving along as 24th Seed! He's still on a heater from defeating Novak last Fall in Shanghai! Keeping Monte Carlo on the map!

The ATP might look so smart after all if Vacherot pans out, and both Fonseca and Mensik turn out to be busts.

My Canadian tennis pal Shirley, may have to flip a coin, she likes Diallo but is a FAA fan through and through

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Okay tuning in to watch Fonseca v Paul, the winner of this match will play Pinky!
So far in this tournament I have been impressed with the commentary of Greg Rusedski, thank God I have been spared Jim Courier, I had to put up with him at the AO.
