Peers gets Davis Cup call up ahead of Dubai semifinal
The BNP Paribas Open has thrown up an all-Aussie affair in the opening round with Matt Ebden set to meet Lleyton Hewitt.
The Masters event in Indian Wells is the first ATP 1000 event of the year and will see the world’s top ranked players compete over two weeks in what many consider the ‘fifth’ grand slam.
In the women’s draw, fellow Sam Maxwell Sports Management athlete Olivia Rogowska will play wildcard Donna Vekic of Croatia in the first round after successfully coming through singles qualifying.
Li Na will start as the top seed and favourite after her Australian Open triumph earlier this year.
Play commences in Indian Wells on Thursday, 11.00am local time.
