Re: Indian Wells.
Ajde  I was a little worried before, but Ana seems to be clinical today.

Re: Indian Wells.
Not so clinical in the 2nd as she lost it 5-7. 
She went up *3-2 up and got broken... she was holding easily until the last game. Ugh.

Re: Indian Wells.
Good grief, need to work on that killer instinct Ana. After she got the first break of the 2nd set for a 3-2 lead, she dropped 8 of the next 9 points, and Olaru never went away. Destroy her now!!

Re: Indian Wells.
Bagel in the 3rd.  Raluca won only 8 pts, I guess Ana got pissed. 
Seriously, she can't allow this lapses of concentration to happen every 2nd set she plays.

Re: Indian Wells.
A win is a win and Ana really did it the Ana way.
She never comes home early.
Congrats

Re: Indian Wells.
I'm not sure being a top seed helps her  I think she was more relaxed when she was an outiser last year, before Berlin

Re: Indian Wells.
Congrats Ana  Very nice 3rd set  She'll play against Garbin whom she beat very easily at the Australian Open  It should be an easy match this time as well  Ajde!

Re: Indian Wells.
Despite that lull in the second set, winning the first and third set 6-1 and 6-0 is very impressive. Looking at the draw, Ana should do well in her section. Schiavone could provide a challenge, though.

Re: Indian Wells.
Garbin has nothing to hurt Ana. Only if the wind is really in her favor.
A 4th round can be interesting. Pennetta who she never played to or Schiavone who she beat in her very first RG after beating Momo!

Youre probably right, but after seeing how she handled the Doha wind, I like her chances in those conditions.
Garbin is pesky, but this should be an easy one.
