The stadium was packed, and there were a lot of smiles and ribbing between the players. Many of the teams jumped into broadcaster mode joining Mark Petchey and Coco Vandeweghe after their matches.

Rybakina and Fritz served their way to the win

The big serves of Elena Rybakina and Taylor Fritz paved the win to their back-to-back championships. Fritz is a three-time champion, he won his first with Aryna Sabalenka and two with Rybakina.

Learner Tien was a late substitution for Andrey Rublev who is still trying to get to Indian Wells after an extended stay in Dubai due to the Middle East unrest. Tien was exciting and creative at the net. Anisimova, the 2022 Eisenhower Cup champion when it was a women’s singles tiebreak ten event, wants to play with Tien again next year.
