After two long years, the Indian Wells Masters is back and let's celebrate that with the best point in its history.
The Indian Wells Masters has been many great matches and many great points in its history however one particular point and rally always sticks out. It was the 2005 Indian Wells Open, then called Pacific Life Open and it was the final between Roger Federer and Lleyton Hewitt. It was at a time when Master's finals were played in a bo5 format and it's was a glorious match.
Probably one of the best matches ever played at the event also featured probably the best rally and point ever played. The point featured a very long rally which demonstrated just how great Roger Federer was. Hewitt was able to win the point in the end but it took a tremendous effort to do so.
Federer was the eventual champion winning the final 6-2 6-4 6-4 for his 24th career title overall at that time. Check it out below.

- A lot of top players with injuries now. Could be a coincidence. Still we have a lot of big tournaments in 4/5 months.
AceOfBase06-05-2024 - Iga never gets an easy draw in any tournament she plays. So that statement is far from the truth. Sabalenka has difficulty because all she wants to do is stand up and serve. She is not a tennis player. If she gets the opponents Iga have, she would be ousted earlier.crissy06-05-2024
- Trickery. Playing the system seems to be a way of life in general these days.
mandoist05-05-2024 - Just be honest... This era of pro sports "couples" are merely easy hookups for sex while on the Tour. Like Hollywood and music biz (except they call it "dating")mandoist05-05-2024
