Nadal 15-0 This Season

It has been a perfect start for Nadal this season, having featured in three tournaments and won every single match so far. That’s 15 victories in a row for the Spanish champion.

And with Novak Djokovic having withdrawn from this competition, Nadal also enters this year’s Indian Wells Masters as the only player with multiple titles at it.

What’s interesting is Nadal comes into this competition on the back of five successive wins to lift the title in Acapulco without dropping a single set. He over Tommy Paul, Daniil Medvedev and Cameron Norrie in consecutive matches there to clinch it.

Nadal starts off this season’s Indian Wells Masters with a tricky opponent first up but given the kind of form he is in, the 21-time Grand Slam winner should not have a lot of difficulties.

Korda Tames Kokkinakis

It did not take too long for Korda to get going in the first round and once he had, the American eased his to a straight-set win in the opener.

Korda was on court for an hour and 30 minutes against Thanasi Kokkinakis and registered a 6-3, 6-4 victory to set up this meeting with Nadal.

The American was off the blocks with an early break and a couple of exchanges of breaks followed soon after that to take Korda to 5-3 in the first set. He served it out to love to win the opening set.

In the second, Korda and Kokkinakis held their respective serves till the eighth game but just when it seemed like the Aussie player could push him into a tie-breaker, a break of serve came through for the American.

Korda then saved two break-points before winning the encounter. He will need to do a lot better with his serve against Nadal.
