(CNN) Donald Trump's vice presidential search turned into a head-spinning melodrama Wednesday as candidates vying for the spot hopped on planes and phones to perform frenzied, last-minute try-outs. For much of the day, Indiana was the unlikely center of the political world -- all thanks to a flat tire. Trump's plane hit something when it landed Tuesday night, resulting in a popped tire, according to a source familiar with the process. That kept Trump in the state longer than he expected after campaigning with Gov. Mike Pence, setting off a last-minute scramble of high-profile travelers to the Hoosier State as the clock ticked down on his VP decision.Indianapolis is becoming a political hot spotTrump will make the announcement on Friday 
 Question:Earlier in the day, a _ spokesperson said the meetings were held in Indiana to allow Trump more time with Pence.

It was a job for a code-breaker as much as a reporter. But I did my best by turning the binoculars on the familiar, full figure of Boris Becker sitting in the players’ box. We suspicious types in the press seats were focusing on the triple Wimbledon winner to see if he was conveying any semaphoric coaching advice to the defending champion, Novak Djokovic. What, for example, were we to make of Becker ruffling his hair with his left hand? What did fiddling with his wedding ring mean? Such thoughts taxed us in light of Becker’s pre-Wimbledon admission that he and Djokovic have ‘ways of communicating’ mid-match. This sort of chatter contravenes the laws of tennis, but is hardly cheating of the first order.
