The one match too many?

Rinky Hijikata is on fire in Indian Wells, but all good things must come to an end!

And yes, and for me, the run could come to an end in this match. For three main reasons. 1: The strong players Rinky has beaten (Darderi and Bublik) are guys with an aggressive game that Rinky managed to counter, draw into errors, and counter-attack. Norrie’s profile is more adaptable. 2: Rinky is on 5 wins here, Norrie only 2. And the Australian has kept going by playing in all the previous tournaments. 3: Norrie is left-handed, and it’s mainly with his forehand that Rinky really hurts his opponents. Here, I like Cameron Norrie’s craftiness, variation, tenacity, motivation, and preparation. From experience, he’s a guy who picks the tournaments where he gives 200%, and IW is one of them. If you see it differently, I’d be happy to hear your opinion in the comments!
