Rafael Nadal and Maria Sharapova were awfully impressive this past fortnight in Indian Wells, walking away with the so-called fifth Grand Slam title. Nadal overwhelmed Roger Federer, before stopping a resurgent Juan Martin Del Potro (how I'd like to see this one come back fully), while Sharapova found little didn't drop a set the entire tournament, dismissing Caroline Wozniacki, 2 and 2. If Rafa is this strong on hard courts now, I fear what kind of damage he could do the rest of the year.
