The Indian Wells Masters 1000 starts off well for Matteo Arnaldi. The first Italian player on the field in the men’s draw, the Ligurian eliminated the Frenchman Luca Van Assche, n. 86 in the world, with a double 7-6 in 2 hours and 6 minutes of play. A hard-fought and hard-earned victory for Arnaldi who, in an evenly matched match, was more lucid in the delicate moments of the match. The blue won two sets in photocopy, overcoming a break deficit in both sets. Matteo wasn’t perfect, but he leveled up in the two tiebreaks with a more aggressive and enterprising game. The first ended at the fourth set point with two consecutive errors by Van Assche; the second dominated with a clear 7-3.
