    For you late night west coasters at 12:30 am west coast time we have quite a final:

    Elena


    Vs

    Aryna


    This is a @YellowSnow special.

    I like ELENA to take her second slam in the past 3.

    The recent superstars Federer et al certainly are among the all time greats. I just had long moved past tennis. Like the Indy 500 and other once upon a time big events, tennis no longer was must see for me

    McEnroe and Conners versus Borg and Becker is the old school comp of great competition. That was my wheelhouse

    Sampras is somewhat forgotten

    But his battle with The Mullet were good too

    Pup?

    Novak cruises to #22. I hope Rafa is healed in time for the French Open so those 2 can go after 23 with both in the field.

    Aryna and Elena played a hell of a final. Just blasting shots. Aryna held tougher to get her first slam. I’m looking forward to more big matches between them.

    I like to refer to tennis players by their first name. It’s what I like to do.

    Hell of a tennis Tuesday at Indian Wells with all matches in the Round of 16 for both women and men going down today.

    Medvedev-Zverev earlier was a good match. Tiafoe is already down.
    Swiatek-Raducanu in the night cap is nice.

    Had to wait an entire 6 weeks or so for one. Indian Wells final today. For non-tennis people this tournament is the Players Championship equivalent in tennis.

    The men’s final of Medvedev vs Alcaraz is really good too. Great sports day for hopefully the last cold day of the season.
