Wild Cards Announced for Indian Wells; Davis Cup Ballrunners



    I spent a soggy, gloomy Saturday afternoon playing with some new software I heard about, Shape Collage (try it, it's free!), and the result was the above photo. When I heard that the Indian Wells (formerly known as Pacific Life, now BNP Paribas) wild cards were out, I challenged myself to find a photo of as many of the players mentioned in the release as I could. I did pretty well--only Lester Cook, who is a finalist in the McAllen, Texas Futures this week, Jelena Dokic, Sania Mirza and Michaella Krajicek eluded me.

    The women's main draw wild cards went to:

    Dokic, Alexa Glatch, Vania King, Krajicek, Mirza, Melanie Oudin, Urszula Radwanska and Alja Tomljanovic; qualifying wild cards were given to Petra Martic, Coco Vandeweghe, Julia Boserup, Asia Muhammad and Angela Haynes, with another to be decided in a pre-qualifier this weekend.

    The men's main draw wild card recipients are:

    Kevin Anderson, Taylor Dent, John Isner, Wayne Odesnik and Ryan Sweeting.

    Only Cook and Alex Domijan have been announced as qualifying wild cards; I believe there are two more remaining, not including the pre-qualifier winner.

    So match the name to the face in the collage if you can!

    The Bryan brothers won the doubles point today in Birmingham, becoming the all-time leaders in Davis Cup doubles wins, and giving the U.S. a 2-1 lead over Switzerland with Andy Roddick in line to clinch the tie in Sunday's first singles match with Stanislas Wawrinka. The Birmingham News has been covering all aspects of the Davis Cup, and didn't ignore the contributions of the local juniors, who have served as ballrunners during the weekend.
