Despite raised expectations, Danielle Collins is keeping things light before the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells.

She's getting very well-known for her emphatic "Come On!"s during match play. She tried to really get in that fighting spirit while on the tournament grounds, getting other people to join in on the shouting.

But the American needed competition to truly inspire her. She found it, but was defeated multiple times in rock, paper, scissor (hopefully that isn't a sign of the tournament to come).

Earlier in the week, Collins attended the Citi Taste of Tennis event, which got equally crazy when Collins took over the mc.

The 25-year-old will be feeling extra confident this week after a semifinal run at the Australian Open.

Collins' rise began in Indian Wells last year when she reached the round of 16 with an upset over Madison Keys. She needed a wild card to compete last year, but this week, Collins has received a first-round bye as the 25th seed.
