Welcome to the Mini-Break, a daily podcast discussing the biggest storylines, results, and controversies from the tennis world. On today’s episode, Cracked Racquets Writer Matt Stachowiak joins Great Shot Podcast host Alex Gruskin to breakdown the first two days of action at Indian Wells.


The guys analyze the stats from FAA/Norrie, Anisimova/Krunic, Kudla/Nishioka, Kenin/Wang, and Giron/Chardy, run through the rest of the round 1 winners, and preview the weekend ahead. They also hypothesize about the implications of the ATP’s decision not to renew current President Chris Kermode’s contract, and debate how court speeds will affect players throughout the weekend.
