Djokovic, Nadal In Indian Wells Action On Tuesday

DAY 6 PREVIEW: For much of the 2016 BNP Paribas Open, young Americans have been the talk of the tournament. Frances Tiafoe beat Taylor Fritz in a battle between 18-year-olds on Thursday, 19-year-old Jared Donaldson played the longest match of the first two rounds on Friday, and 149th-ranked Bjorn Fratangelo took a set off World No. 1 Novak Djokovic on Sunday.

But on Tuesday at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden, all eyes will be on the ‘Four Horsemen’ of American tennis: No. 9 seed John Isner, No. 21 seed Jack Sock, No. 30 seed Steve Johnson and No. 31 seed Sam Querrey. The Top 4 Americans in the Emirates ATP Rankings are seeking spots in the Sweet 16 at the first of two March Masters. Of the quartet, Querrey is the lowest-ranked. However, the 6-foot-6 Californian has had the most impressive start to the 2016 season.

While Querrey and Johnson meet opponents in the Top 10, Sock may have the most difficult assignment against No. 11 seed Dominic Thiem. The 22-year-old Austrian leads the ATP World Tour with 21 wins this season, including a victory over Rafael Nadal in the Buenos Aires semi-finals. Nadal and Djokovic have won seven of the last nine BNP Paribas Open titles, and both former champions return Tuesday after winning three-setters in the second round.

Djokovic meets No. 27 seed Philipp Kohlschreiber, while Nadal faces fellow Spanish left-hander Fernando Verdasco. Nadal won his first 13 FedEx ATP Head 2 Head matches against his doubles partner Verdasco, but has lost three of the last four. In their most recent meeting, Verdasco struck 90 winners to upset Nadal in a five-set, first-round match at the 2016 Australian Open.
