Top-ranked Iga Swiatek Holds Off Bianca Andreescu to Reach Indian Wells 4th Round

News 18  

World number one Iga Swiatek passed the test she’d been looking for, roaring through the tiebreaker to win a roller-coaster clash with Bianca Andreescu 6-3, 7-6 to reach the fourth round at Indian Wells. She would go on to win the French and US Opens last year, but she got a run for her money from Canada’s Andreescu, whose 2019 Indian Wells triumph was the springboard to a breakout season that included a US Open title. Unable to convert a break chance in the second game, Andreescu then took her turn to put together a run of games, winning four straight with two breaks of serve — including breaking Swiatek to love for a 4-2 lead. “I’m even glad that I had a chance to play under pressure a little bit more and see how I’m going to cope with that.” Swiatek next faces another former US Open champion for a place in the quarter-finals, Britain’s Emma Raducanu.
