The French Open is still 2 months and 2 weeks away. Lets hope he will be fit again then. Otherwise it will certainly become more and more difficult for his psyche.

I guess it's the main reason he postpones his return. He knows he has no room for mistakes anymore. Risking now and returning too early and on hard can put an end to his career.

Certainly

-------------------

Rublev has now also made a video on social media and in the video he apologised for his incident in Dubai. That should put the matter to bed and he can get back to doing what he does best against Murray in Inidan Wells. Murray had no problems in his opening match against Goffin and won clearly in two sets. But it will be much tougher against Rublev and unfortunately I do not see much of a chance from Murray to win this match.

Again Rafael Nadal withdrew from the big tournament Indian Wells after confirming that he would play in the tournament and even arrived early to make longer preparations but he again felt he was not fit to compete in a big tournament like the ATP 1000, sad news for his fans and maybe he will be able to play for the French Open
https://www.atptour.com/en/news/nadal-indian-wells-2024-withdrawal

That is so disappointing and must be so disappointing for him too. I hope he has the strength and energy to carry on. But I would also understand if he stopped his tennis career. It still looked good in the show match in Las Vegas against Alcaraz last Sunday. Although he did not have to push himself to his physical limits. The French Open is still 2 months and 2 weeks away. Lets hope he will be fit again then. Otherwise it will certainly become more and more difficult for his psyche.

Yes I read that news about Rafa just a while ago after seeing that Raonic plays Nagal tomorrow.
Ah its a pity for Nadal, he is struggling now with injuries, recovery and getting to a level he is
content with.

Wow - Simona Halep - thats a name I havent considered for quite a while. Yea at 32 I'm not sure
how effective she will be, [her last tournament was the US open 2022] against the younger players
who have grown stronger over the last year or so.

On the WTA side in Indian Wells I am interested to see how Osaka will fair against Errani today,
the odds are 1.21 v 4.20 in favour of Osaka.

Other news Simona Halep certainly feels happy after her four-year ban from playing was reduced to just nine months and she will automatically be able to play immediately, and maybe she will play in the French Open or Wimbledon by getting a wild card, but it cannot be denied that she is 32 years old it will be difficult for her to play with the performance she had a few years ago or before she got the ban.

Well I think that was proper order in fairness, he obviously appealed it well and it wasnt
as bad as it was on the day.

Just watched a replay of the Eisenhower Cup Tie Break tournament and he was in
great form...

Meanwhile, Rublev had appealed the umpire's decision and ATP has ruled in his favor: he is going to keep the points and also the money he earned during Dubai Open.

Qualifying for Indian Wells will be finishing in a few hours and the Rounds of 128 kick off tomorrow.
Among the many matches is one very interesting one Raonic v Nadal, the odds are 2.40 v 1.53, nice
odds on Nadal!

The top seeds are scheduled to play their first matches on Friday, top 3 seeds Djokovic, Alcaraz and
Sinner listed. Alcaraz will be interesting to see what level he is at, Sinner last years beaten finalist
will also be interesting to see how far he progresses and if he can continue his winning streak,
Djokovic also who hasnt being playing that much is interesting.

Looking at the outrights its:

Djokovic 2.75
Sinner 3.9
Alcaraz 4.95

I'm surprised to see Djokovic so far ahead of Sinner, those odds on Sinner are very tempting!

The Dubai final will be between Bublik vs Humbert who managed to beat Medvedev in straight sets, Humbert is the favorite in this final, but Bublik has performed quite well so far and he does look better this season as does his opponent Humbert who has already bagged the title this year and this will be their first meeting, with Bublik getting odds around @3.00 I think it's quite worth picking

Seeing Bublik's appearance, actually without Rublev being disqualified Bublik has a big chance of getting to the final because he is leading and his opponent at that time is emotional which is uncontrolled, and that is something that Rublev often shows, not only shouting and cursing but hurting himself by hitting his knee with a racket until he gets hurt, something he has already done, regardless of it being a controversial decision, it will be a lesson for him to be able to control his emotions better, and if we watch at the semifinal match, actually both players were in quite an emotional state where Bublik also broke his racket and argued quite loudly with the umpire.

And Humbert takes the final in 2 sets 4-6 and 3-6. Thats 6 finals he has been in and
has won all 6 - remarkable. As I said before both players are really playing well so far
for 2023.

Regarding Rublev I have seen him often striking himself with the racket, he really isnt
doing himself any favours there. I'm genuinely sorry for him for being disqualified, he loses
his prize money and his points, such a pity.

Another controversy as Rublev gets disqualified for swearing at the line judge. The score was Bublik 6-7,7-6,6-5 Rublev(Disqualified) when Rublo had a meltdown and screamed at the line judge. The line judge then went and complained to the chair umpire that Rublev screamed "fucking..." in Russian at the line judge. Took a while but in the end, the Chair Umpire disqualified Rublev and gave the win for Bublik.
Rublev was indeed disqualified in the ATP Dubai tournament because of his uncontrolled anger which resulted in him saying inappropriate words to the referee and this is very regrettable incident because Rublev suffered loss in this tournament because of his own actions.
Rublev also defended himself with several statements, but the referee really gave no consideration or tolerance.
Bublik even asked the referee and ATP supervisor Roland Herfel to consider leniency and continue the match but it was all in vain.

Rublev disqualification allowed Bublik to be ranked in the top 20 and he really looked happy, but on the other hand there was also little disappointment because what he got was not purely due to hard work in winning the match.
What is surprising is that several parties stated that this decision was too quick because there was no proof or more precise truth to what Rublev said.
I myself think that the referee also made firm decision too early, everything that the head referee believed was only based on the arguments of the line referee and not on something more real and could be seen clearly by everyone.

I guess the decision to disqualify Rublev was made by the supervisor not the umpire.

As to the incident itself, the line judge claimed Rublev said "you fucking moron" in Russian and the guy understood Russian so he reported to the chair umpire. Rublev claimed he didn't say the word "fucking" the expression he mentioned means something like "are you retarded?" in Russian.

Anyway, the decision had been made. What is also important, is that the ball indeed was out and it was a bad call.

He shouldnt have put himself in that position, its difficult in the heat of the momen though.
He just seems like a very frustrated player -on court-.

here there is the video of Rublev while shout to the umpire. I can understand "disappoint" but at a certain level such errors are unbelievable. Nice achievement for Bublik that reach the final. Personally I love so much his tennis style really fun to see on the pitch.

wow, I saw the first set of that match but had to leave it after that, I was shocked to
learn Rublev was disqualified. TBH he isnt getting to grips with his emotions when
on court, he lets his emotions boil over and in contrast Bublik who used to be like
Rublev with giving out etc. seems to be more....balanced is that the right word?

And in another kind of shocking result Humbert beat Medvedev in 2 sets to meet
Bublik in the final! thats a difficult one to call the winner of, both players have improved
a lot this season.

The odds are Humbert 1.43 v 2.45 Bublik

Yes its a bit of a shock and not good for anyone betting on him based on his win in
the previous tournament.

It must be difficult for some players to transition from winning a tournament one week
to starting off a new tournament a few days later, its a mental thing.

Another example of the follow up tournament after having a great previous week. Mensik, who reached the finals of Doha after beating the likes of Davidovic Fokina, Murray, Rublev, Monfils and finally losing to Khachanov. He was playing Dubai this week and after a tough first round win against Coric yesterday, he had to retire in the 2nd set today against Davidovic Fokina, who he'd previously beat in straight sets. He retired due to exhaustion. Imagine a 18 year old getting exhausted playing tennis. Imagine older players in late 20's and 30's. It must be really tough on their body, all the traveling and training.

And two more retirements today from Korda against Rublevand Lehecka against Bublik
thats strange, to be fair the schedule is quite busy, very little rest opportunities between
tournaments which are bunched together based on location.

Bublik v Rublev in the first semi final tomorrow

Two quarter finals soon:
Medvedev v Davidovich Fokina and Hurkacz v Humbert

I fancy Humbert to beat Hurkacz, he has been going very well lately as has Hurkacz to be fair.
Medvedev is going to have a tough one, the last few meetings of these two has gone the
full distance in sets.


Yeah, shocking withdrawals I was hoping to feast my eyes on that show. Lehecka did very well against in-form Khachanov.

Anyway, Medvedev looks determined to win the title in Dubai this year. He missed a few tournaments he won last year so it seems he will be looking to stop this point drought.
