The first Masters Series event of the season. Who are you liking for this one?
Can Rafa finally defend a title off clay?
Will Novak take his first title of the year?
Is Roger really really back?
Will Stan consolidate his progress, by winning the second biggest HC title so far?
What do you think?
And is anybody going to attend?
Kieran, I'm gonna attend Indian Wells this year
This is the special tournament for me because Indian Wells is only a hour drive from my home. In addition, this is the first tennis tournament I officially watched in T.V. and in person. I was not a tennis fan before 2007 but my stepdad and I decided to play Tennis for fun. Then, I saw Nadal play at this tournament seven years ago (that is the year he won his first IW title). After watching Nadal play one match, I instantly became a fan of his. Since then, I became a huge Nadal and tennis fan.
In addition to all of that, me, my stepdad, and my mother went to the tournament in 2007. Nadal actually said Hi to my mother while he was having his afternoon/night practice (lucky her:blush
Finally, I also saw Djokovic in this tournament before he became ranked number three in the world. It was funny because nobody knew him at all during that time. He was just walking casually in the ground with no security haha...then my stepdad and I were wondering who is this guy?:lolz: Little we know that we were this close to the future number one player in the world.
Anyways, I will try to take some pictures on post it in here.
I'm only going this upcoming Saturday because I have school and the the ticket costs $50. I only make 9/hr so one day is good enough for me. Besides, I'm going on the day when most players are still in the draw.
