Indian Wells Week 1 NOTEBOOK DUMP (Djokovic, Zverev & Other Upsets) | Monday Match Analysis
On Monday Match Analysis, Gill Gross runs through storylines and matches from week 1 at Indian Wells 2025. We'll start with a follow up on conditions since the organizers changed the court. Following that, we'll discuss Novak Djokovic's upset defeat to Botic Van De Zandschulp and Alexander Zverev's rough day against Tallon Griekspoor. But were those upsets more surprising/disappointing than Casper Ruud, Andrey Rublev and Felix Auger-Aliassime? We'll end on Nick Kyrgios's opening round retirement due to wrist pain and the social media trend of showing large doubles crowds on the ground before diving into "Tales From The Booth." On Tales, we get to Yosuke Watanuki, Learner Tien, Arthur Fils, Garbiel Diallo, Ben Shelton, Gael Monfils and Sebastien Korda, plus Jack Draper vs. Joao Fonseca.
