Emil Ruusuvuori hasn’t been in good touch lately and has been losing all the recent tournaments he has played in. He will be adamant to make a change in fortune and perform well at the Indian Wells Masters. He couldn’t make it to the later stages in most of his last tournaments, losing to Cressy at the Open Sud De France, and to Rublev at the Australian Open. He made it to the round of 32 stage of the Adelaide International 2 and got knocked out right in the first round of the Maharashtra Open to Bonzi. He also got knocked out of the Paris Masters in the first round itself to Blancaneaux and to Hurkacz at the Vienna Open at the round of 16 stage. In the ongoing Indian Wells, he received a walkover against Lestienne in the round of 128 matchup when he was leading by 6-4, 4-1, and he beat Bautista Agut in the round of 64 stage by 6-7, 2-6.
Alexander Zverev hasn’t been in good touch lately after recovering from the injury he picked up at the French Open last year and still is searching for good form. He will be adamant to make a change in fortune and perform well at the Indian Wells Masters. He couldn’t make it past the second stage mark in his last tournament which was the Australian Open, where he lost to Mmoh after beating Varillas in the first round. But before his injury, he was in great form beating players like Alcaraz Garfia, Zapata Miralles, Nakashima, Sebastian Baez, and Ofner at the French Open before retiring midway through the semi-final match against Rafael Nadal. In the ongoing Indian Wells, he beat Cachin in the first-round matchup by 3-6, 1-6.
