Indian Wells - March 16/17 (4.5+)

[lockbox]

Hey all,

I'll be headed to Indian Wells the weekend of the finals. I'm a 4.5 looking for a 4.5/5.0 to hit with while i'm there primarily on saturday. Any takers?

Also, this will be my first time going to Indian Wells after qualifying/1st week. Any advice on anything related to the tournament, what to bring, fun things to do etc?

Thanks!

If you don't get anything lined up, here's a pro tip, go to Ruth Hardy Park early, like 745am and find the court where all the local guys gather (it will be obvious) there will be a guy sitting in a folding chair at the back. Introduce yourself, be humble, be courteous, and ask if you can get into a doubles match. Great bunch of older guys there but they get a little territorial about the courts when all the out of towners descend on them during the Indian Wells tournament.
