How did Nori soar to the final of the Indian Wells Masters? Strength or luck?

First of all, this year's Indian Wells Masters, Norie's signing table is very favorable.

Nori, the 21st seed of the tournament, had a first-round bye, a second-round win over the in-form Sandgren and a third-round victory over veteran Agut. Agut made brief adjustments in the middle of the season and declined significantly after a resumption of the season in the second half of the season. In the fourth round, Nori defeated the younger unseeded player Paul. Paul eliminated big seed Rublev in 2/4

In the quarter-finals, Nori played against Schwartzman, the biggest seed he had ever come up with all the way to the final, but he had a 2-1 advantage in the hand-to-hand record. Sure enough, Nori beat the "strongest 170 on the surface" by a 6:0/6:2 score, hitting Schwartzman and shaking his head, with no way to turn back.

In the semi-finals, Nori played Dimitrov. Dimi eliminated cannon gunner Operka all the way, top seed Medvedev, No. 8 seed Hulkach, defeated two top 10 players, "for" Nori to remove all obstacles in the first half, and finally lost 2-6, 4-6 to Nori.

In the end, Nori became the player who successfully reached the final in the first half, but the strongest opponent he encountered was the 11th seed Schwartzman. As the 21st seed, all the way to the final without meeting any top 10 players, Nori's luck is really too good to say.

Nori's final opponent was Bashirashvili.

Bashirashvili defeated No. 2 seed Tsitsipas 6-4, 2-6, 6-4 in the quarter-finals and Fritz in the semi-finals. Fritz swept away The No. 5 seed Berrettini and the No. 10 seed Sinar, and in the quarterfinals, he defeated the No. 2 seed Zverev, defeating the two top 10 players, and finally losing to Bashirashvili. So, like Dimitrov in the upper half, Fritz also "cleared" the mines for Bashirashvili.

However, After all, Bashirashvili defeated the No. 2 seed Tsitsipas, broke through from his 4/4 zone, and finally defeated Fritz to advance to the final. Compared to Nori, it is more convincing.

Let's take a look at Nori's record this season.
