Share As I started following the Masters Series at Indian Wells, I realized that I had hardly followed any tennis since the Australian Open. In fact, barring the exhibition match between Pete Sampras and Fernando Verdasco at San Jose Open, I had not watched any tennis, live or recorded. The month long break without any significant tennis right after a Grand Slam works wonders in diverting your...

Share The way Roger Federer continues to chug along the path to immortality and beyond, merrily adding Grand Slam titles to his résumé, free of any kind of injury or opposition, you get the feeling that the best chance of his domination ending any time soon is a premature retirement caused by him hurting himself when he falls to his knees in celebration.

Share The spectacular 2009 season had built a great hype for its upcoming year, and by the third day of its first Grand Slam, 2010 has started to deliver on all its hype.
