Ok, I know Carlos Moya is a former #1 and a past champion at the BNP Paribas Open or at that time the Pacific Life Open, but does he deserve a wildcard to a Masters 1000 event??  I struggle with this question because of his accomplishments in the game and everything he has given. Wildcards are meant to help up an comers or top juniors to help them break through. Should it really be awarded to a 30 something former player that wants another shot?

This isn't the same as Justin Henin who retired as the #1 WTA player in the world and then wants back in after a year (she better be seeded by the way!). Carlos has been out of tennis for over 2 years and his game was struggling before he feel off the radar. I just can't imagine him making it through the 2nd round. The men's game continues to get deeper and deeper and there are no easy rounds.

I sincerely hope he does well because I was always a fan. I want to see him have a successful clay court season and make a go of it at the French...but that doesn't answer the question, does he really deserve a wildcard?
