Daniil Medvedev is in the round of 16 in Indian Wells

Things are still going well for the Russian representatives at the ATP Masters 1000 tournament in Indian Wells. US Open Champion Daniil Medvedev, for example, who was in first place in the absence of Novak Djokovic, reached the round of 16 with a 6: 2 and 7: 6 (1) against Filip Krajinovic. And thus took revenge for the outright defeat that the Serb had inflicted on him on the spot in 2019. Medvedev is now playing against Grigor Dimitrov, who was able to assert himself 6: 3 and 6: 4 against Reilly Opelka.

Aslan Karatsev also seems to be getting back into shape a bit late in the year. The semi-finalist of the Australian Open 2021 won against Denis Shapovalov 7-5 and 6-2. Karatsev now has to deal with Hubert Hurkacz. The Pole has already won a 1000 event in Miami this year. In the third round of Indian Wells, Hurkacz had no problems with Frances Tiafoe, winning 6: 3 and 6: 2.

Andrey Rublev, however, was eliminated on Monday evening in Indian Wells: Rublev was defeated by local hero Tommy Paul 4: 6, 6: 3 and 5: 7. Paul can now try his luck against Cameron Norrie. The Brit won against Roberto Bautista Agut in three sets.

Jannik Sinner continues without a fight. Opponent John Isner could not play for the third round match, Sinner plays in the round of 16 against either Matteo Berrettini or Taylor Fritz. Also in the last 16 is Casper Ruud, who had to go through three tough sets against Lloyd Harris. Ruud now has to deal with Diego Schwartzman.
