From the courts of Indian Wells, California, the first Masters 1000 of the season will start on March 8. Here’s how to follow the tennis tournament live streaming
The 2018 tennis season has started with a bang. The protagonist is always him: Roger Federer. At 36 years old, the Swiss tennis player first won the 2018 Australian Open, the first Grand Slam tournament of the year, and then returned number one in the ATP world rankings. The oldest person to achieve this result.
The Swiss tennis player seems to be living a second youth. And while all the main adversaries (Nadal, Djokovic, Murray) are stopped at the pits for physical problems, Federer is the great favorite to win the first Masters 1000 of the season that will be played on the courts of Indian Wells in California. Despite the absence of many big names, there will be opponents to beat, starting with Marin Cilic, number three in the world and finalist at the Australian Open. At the same time the men’s tournament will also be played in the women’s one, which will see the return of Serena Williams after the pregnancy that saw her away from tennis for over a year. Will the American tennis player return to her former levels? We will find out from March 8, the day the tournament begins.
