Parity at Indian Wells (2021)

Episode-43-Parity-at-Indian-Wells

Indian Wells has been dominated by Djokovic and Federer. But the last three years someone unexpected from the field has claimed the prestigious title in the desert at what many refer to as the “5th Slam”. With Djokovic, Federer, and Nadal absent at this year’s edition of Indian Wells there were ample opportunities for the rest of the field. Cam Norrie was one of those players that fought through to win his maiden Masters 1000 title. We discuss the numbers and how he has had an excellent season in 2021. Without the Big 3, tennis must still go on.

How Djokovic Finally Won by Losing

Djokovic may have come up short in his bid to capture the calendar slam, but he may have won something else greater in the process. Medvedev became a grand slam champion and again no one has defended their title in New York since 2008, when Roger Federer won his 5th consecutive title. Why does the US Open have more parity than the other slams? We discuss this and more and as always we explore the numbers behind the matches.
