Indian Wells: Berrettini-Kecmanovic 0-0. Sinner from 20.30 | Direct

Azzurri on the hunt for a historic result, no one ever so far ahead in the Californian desert. Matteo challenges the 22-year-old Serbian, for Jannik there is the obstacle Kyrgios

There are two blues involved in the round of 16 of Indian Wells, the first Masters 1000 of the season, with a prize pool of $ 8,761,725. The first to take the field is Matteo Berrettini, never so far ahead in the Californian desert: the 25-year-old Roman, number 6 in the ranking and seeding, on his return after the abdominal problem accused in Acapulco, defeated the Danish Holger Rune on his debut, 86 Atp, and then the South African Lloyd Harris, 32. Now he has to contend with the Serbian Miomir Kecmanovic, n.61 in the ranking, who in Indian Wells boasts the fourths reached in 2019 (later stopped by the Canadian Raonic). There are no precedents between Matteo and the 22-year-old from Belgrade.

Sinner

Then it will be the turn of Jannik Sinner, who arrived in the second round for the second time in his career. The 20-year-old from Sesto Pusteria, number 10 in the ranking, made his debut in the second round by beating Serbian Laslo Djere, # 52 ATP, in two sets, and then defeated the French Benjamin Bonzi, # 62 ATP. A place in the quarterfinals is played with the Australian Nick Kyrgios, # 132 ATP, in the race thanks to a wild card, which stopped the Norwegian Casper Ruud, n.8 in the ranking and seeding. There are no precedents between Sinner and the 26-year-old from Canberra.
