Brilliant Rohan Bopanna! Oldest #ATP Masters 1000 champion at 43 years old! #indianwells #RohanBopanna

Brilliant Carlos Alcaraz! And back to #1 ranking. #carlosalcaraz #indianwells #ATP

My face when I see a guy complaining about a court surface not suiting him but he's taking home a runner-up trophy and big pay cheque #Tennis #IndianWells

It's been a remarkable recovery for Alcaraz cuz he only lost to Scam Norrie in the Rio Final 3 weeks ago due to injury.

It was the only reason I didn't back him today - they both went off at $1.90 and I couldn't work out why Alcaraz wasn't the favourite.

I'm 1-1 on the day - won with Rybakina and lost on Volynets - although, if I'd gone nuts and played leans, I could also have lost on Birrell, Bonaventure, Masarova, Peterson, Swan, etc., etc. Phew!

Carlitos in straight sets 6-3, 6-2. #tennis #atp #indianwells

Alcaraz beats Medvedev, 63 62 for the #IndianWells title.

Alcaraz just toying with Medvedev now. The sport is going to have to change to play him because he's making the current version of the game look redundant #Tennis #IndianWells

Alcaraz not sending any consistent pace to the Medvedev backhand but ripping into his forehand regularly has been an interesting pattern to observe...and highly effective #Tennis #IndianWells

You want to play a game of shot tolerance? Carlos can do that. Want to play a game of plus ones? Carlos can do that. Want to play a game of serve and volley? Carlos can do that too. It's Carlos with everything, everywhere all at once #Tennis #IndianWells

Three games into the men’s final, the #IndianWells stadium audio fails again—including, most importantly, the audio for Hawk-Eye Live calls. Alcaraz and Medvedev play on.

Why does Larry Ellison so often fail to show up for the women’s final of his own damn tournament? #IndianWells

Rybakina blows quite a few opportunities but plays more within herself when forced to defend and beats a decidedly hit-or-miss Sabalenka, 76(11) 64 in 2h04m for the #IndianWells title.

It’s Elena’s first win over Aryna in 5 meetings.

5-2 Rybakina. Sabalenka losing focus for that bit in the first set cost her. She started over thinking and double faulting all over the place and while she was competitive in the TB there was never a time during it that I thought she'd taken control of the set. #wta #tennis #indianwells #bnpparibasopen #tennisparadise

Just waiting for the Sabalenka v Rybakina #IndianWells highlights because two women taking to each other wildly and erratically with blunt force instruments just ain’t worth watching live #Tennis

Rybakina takes the nervy first set 7-6(11). #tennis #wta #indianwells

Racquet toss by Rybakina no harm done and Sabalenka sends it long. 11 all. #tennis #wta #indianwells

...and Rybakina returns the favor. 8 all. #wta #tennis #indianwells

Sabalenka throws in a double serving for the set. Back to 6 all first set. #tennis #wta #indianwells

6 all btw. #wta #indianwells #tennis #bnpparibasopen
