Ep. 148 - Sinner Masterclass in Indian Wells / Can Medvedev Challenge the Top 2?

About this episode

Erik and Aidan discuss the first week of the Indian Wells Masters and the performances of top players.

This week Erik and Aidan discuss the first week of the Indian Wells Masters which has delivered some exciting moments so far. The top 2 cruised through their early rounds, and seem to be heading on a collision course to a Sinner and Alcaraz Final. Djokovic survived a couple of early scares, while Musetti was upset in his first match. Meanwhile, last year's winner Draper has been performing well, and a host of other underdog players have made it through to hopefully make it an exciting second week of the tournament. Be sure to check back next week for the full tournament recap!
