Karlovic beat Rik De Voest 6-3, 7-6(2) today. Also, the winner of this match, will not face, as expected, Andy Roddick, the 6th seed, he has fallen by the wayside, losing 4 & 4 to Tommy Haas.
One of the few I've seen today to mention what was arguably a more significant victory than Andy's over Karlo! Safety in numbers for the Murray clan Neil Harman, Tennis Correspondent in Indian Wells, California He bounds towards you, the familiar ten-to-two gait, the mesh of curls, freckles and tee...

Naomi has moved a short distance out of Delhi and finds herself in the opposite side of the draw to last week's conqueror Yanina Wickmayer (though the latter may withdraw). She starts with a wildcard and the prospect of a rematch with Carmen Klaschka in the Quarterfinals. Nicola Mooney made a brief ca...

A poor loss for James this week. He has had no regular partner this year, has fallen a lot in the rankings, am I the only one who thinks he may be the next to pack it in?

As well as Murray, world number two, Rafael Nadal, and Australian Open champion, Novak Djokovic, hav...
