Weeks 40 & 41 - ATP Masters 1000 - BNP Paribas Open, Indian Wells, CA, USA (hard)


A 6-2 set for Cam and he is in control right now. Good analysis by Petch showing how Cam has increased his net clearance with his big spin on his forehand and the combo of heavy spin forehand and flat backhand is causing Dimi big issues .

 I do - I didnt two or three days ago, but given who is left, yes. If I was him Id look at the other three and say I can beat all these guys, no reason to think he cant. Any nerves he feels , its an equally massive deal for the other 3 . 

he can definitely win it - will he is the question!

 Do you know if Cam is the highest seed left in the tournament?  I only ask because  I read an article that said Cam has tended to tighten up in games where he was the favourite in the past and not play his best when he's expected to win.

 

However, it's obvious to us all that Cam has found another level in this tournament. He looks the real deal.

Thanks JonH. I do like Tim Henman. Calling this the biggest game of Cam's career is probably about right.
