2139: On the wireless, they just said that Nadal is the only lefty Murray has ever lost to. Remarkable. Was that x for me Debs, or for everyone? Sorry, feeling a little unloved... crackerjack atmosphere out there, it's buzzing, I repeat, buzzing.
"Andy will win today. Not sure the very windy conditions will suit Moonball Man!"

"In Charlotte airport after SXSW festival for a six-hour changover. Free internet though, so I'm following all the way. Go Andy!"

2135: This event has some pedigree, and if Murray were to win it his name would be added to the honours board below Nadal, Roger Federer, Andre Agassi, Pete Sampras, Stefan Edberg, Boris Becker, Jimmy Connors and John Newcombe. That's some list. Players knocking up now.
2132: I just watched the end of the women's final between Russia's Vera Zvonareva and Serbia's Ana Ivanovic, and it was like they were playing in a wind tunnel. Lovely, sunny day in Indian Wells, just not one for comb-overs. By the way, Zvonareva won in straight sets. Players are out on court... the main stadium at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden holds 16,100, making it the second biggest tennis arena in the world.
2120: All right? It's Andy Murray versus world number one Rafael Nadal in the final of the Indian Wells Masters. The Scot has won the last two meetings, but those matches were on faster surfaces - the higher-bouncing Indian Wells court should favour Nadal and that vicious forehand of his. They'll be on court in about 10....
