Azarenka Struggles Through

The third round is now complete and all the top ten players made it through, though Azarenka was tested.

(Rank/Seed)

2/1 Azarenka had her title defence put in jeopardy against Flipkens; seeing a break in the first set dissipate as her opponent mixed up the game with slice. However, after blowing her nose, Azarenka felt she could breathe better and ultimately finished strong, winning 36 63 60 to reach her third straight fourth round at Indian Wells.

6/4 Kerber seems to be over her recent back troubles and early tournament exits, as she came from 1-4 down in the second to beat Wickmayer 61 76(3) and reach a second straight fourth round in Indian Wells.

9/7 Stosur overcame a middle set blip to see off Peng 63 36 62, reaching her first fourth round here since 2010.

10/8 Wozniacki had little trouble out rallying Vesnina 62 61 to reach her sixth straight fourth round here.
