American Hopes Isner, Dent Among ATP Indian Wells Wildcards


Posted on March 10, 2009

Comeback veteran Taylor Dent and big-serving hope John Isner are among the wildcards announced for the ATP Masters event beginning on Thursday of this week in Indian Wells.

The two are joined by fellow Americans Wayne Odesnik, Ryan Sweeting, and former Illinois player Kevin Anderson of South Africa as wildcards.

Dent has come out of retirement from numerous back issues, and is attempting to bolster his ranking which is outside the Top 100. Isner is in danger of falling out of the Top 150 after last year cracking the Top 100, rising to No. 81.

The men's draw in Indian Wells will be released later today.
