I know everybody is looking forward to the Nadal - Alcaraz match on Saturday, but we have some cracker jack matches today at Indian Wells including Rublev - Dimitrov on the men's side and the two ladies semi-finals (Halep - Swiatek and Sakkari - Badosa).

Rublev is having a terrific start to 2022 and awaits the winner of Fritz - Kecmanovic.

With Ben Stiller and Christine Taylor in attendance he should have said " if you can dodge a racquet you can dodge a ball".

Great win by Sakkari last night over Badosa which advances her to the biggest final of her career on Sunday versus Swiatek.

Fritz breaks to take the opening set 7-5 and Rublev is boiling over. He appears to be barking at some old guy who's wearing a yellow hat that looks like Charlie Brown's shirt from Peanuts lol

Rublev took a MTO as he punched his racquet and open up some cuts on his hand. Blood was everywhere.

I like watching how the players are driven to Stadium 1 in the golf cart. Don't you usually put the kids in the back, though?

/Rafa was at the back of the bus lol

Um, Alcaraz is tearing the cover off the ball and breaks Rafa to start the match.

If this first service game of Carlos is any indication, we might be here a while.

Edit: Back on serve

Carlos won the first two games, Rafa has won the next four. Also, Carlos needs to find his first serve because Rafa is feasting on the second serve.

The blustery conditions have really dragged down the quality of this match.

It's like a wind/sandstorm outside of Stadium 1 presently.

I love this kit. I like the pink too but I prefer this. He looks like he’s favouring his foot.

The young kid is hanging tough with Rafa.

Edit: Carlos finally breaks after a nearly 20 minute service game.

We need a 3rd set. The question is will they continue to play?

Edit: The answer is yes, they will.
