Camila Osorio twice came from a break down and saved three match points in the second set, before earning a statement victory over American Iva Jovic on Friday night in Indian Wells. Meanwhile, Naomi Osaka faced a stiff test from Victoria Jimenez Kasintseva, but managed to weather the storm in straight sets to earn a 7-5, 6-2 victory. Camila Osorio was on the brink more than once against home favorite Iva Jovic. The 24-year-old Colombian trailed by a break twice in the second set and faced three match points on Jovic's serve at 5-4. It will be their third meeting at the WTA Tour Driven by Mercedes-Benz level. Their most recent encounter came at this tournament a year ago, when Osorio upset Osaka in straight sets in the first round. On Friday, Osorio produced another shock victory, defeating the No. 18 seed Jovic, who was also in seeking her first third-round appearance at Indian Wells. It all came down to Osorio's poise on the pressure points. The three-time WTA titlist converted all five of her break points and saved 11 of the 15 she faced, repeatedly showing her championship mettle. With momentum fully on her side, Osorio broke to open the third set and raced ahead 4-0. For Osaka, Friday marked her first match since withdrawing ahead of her third-round contest at the Australian Open in January. “I just wanted to have a lot of fun,” Osaka said in her on-court interview. Also, I've never played Victoria before, and she's really young and played a really good match, so it was fun to play.” Moments later, she served for the set at 5-2, but that's when things got tight. Jimenez Kasintseva generated her first break point and converted for 5-3 as Osaka's forehand missed the mark. Then, after saving three set points and holding for 5-4, the 20-year-old found the line with a brilliant backhand winner to level at 5-all. But Osaka responded by breaking for 6-5 and converting her sixth set point in the next game.

Novak Djokovic is well known for being on the cutting edge of sports science—and now he's letting fans in on his secrets.The 24-time Grand Slam winner has launched a new line of therapeutic wearables with Incrediwear. The brand welcomed the collaboration with a meet-and-greet at the BNP Paribas Open, as a “Novak x Incrediwear” aerial banner flew on a plane overhead.Djokovic's line includes an arm sleeve, knee sleeve and leg sleeves equipped with semiconductor particles and wearable infrared—all of it championing a “new class of performance technology.”Incrediwear looks like a compression sleeve, like those frequently used in sports, but it doesn't actually compress the injured area. According to their website, the products are made of “element-infused fabric... activated by body heat to deliver infrared and negative ion therapy, accelerating recovery without drugs, compression, or side effects.”Read More: Can Grigor Dimitrov take Carlos Alcaraz out of his comfort zone?

At 2024 Wimbledon, he went all the way to the final before losing to Carlos Alcaraz, and at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris he added a gold medal to his legendary trophy cabinet, defeating Alcaraz in the final.Read More: Another step forward: Novak Djokovic hits at Wimbledon wearing compression knee sleeveAll the while, Djokovic was seen wearing a distinctive gray and white Incrediwear sleeve on his right knee, on and off the court.“The health space is something I deeply care about, something that is also very authentic and close to me, as I live it on a daily basis," Djokovic told press this week.

After both players secured second-round wins Friday, Coco Gauff's next test at the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells will come from rising 20-year-old Alex Eala, who continues to build momentum in Tennis Paradise. These days, Gauff has her own place nearby, has acquired a new skill and seems to enjoy the space. “There are times, because I have my younger brothers,” Gauff said, “they're like, `Are you spending the night here?' 4 seed at the BNP Paribas Open hit a brief nap before finishing off qualifier Kamilla Rakhimova 6-3, 7-6 (5) in a windswept second-round match. Sometimes it feels like Gauff, who turns 22 a week from Friday, has been doing this virtually forever. It was the sixth straight year she's won a main-draw match here, making her the third youngest do that, after precocious predecessors Caroline Wozniacki and Lindsay Davenport. The win sets up a Sunday third-round meeting with No. 31 seed Alex Eala, who outlasted Ukraine's Dayana Yastremska in a late-night match. Gauff remains a superior competitor, rising to the challenge when points matter most. She raised her level in the tiebreak, winning the match point by scrambling to pick up a dropshot and firing a killer overhead. Gauff saved 8 of 13 break points overall and overcame that three-game deficit in the second set. In the critical eighth game of the first set, Rakhimova was threatening to win her third straight game and level things at 4-all. At 15-all, Gauff hammered a running backhand pass and then prevailed in two long and absorbing rallies to take the game and swing the momentum back in her favor. True grit and determination 💥@CocoGauff delivers a dominant performance over Rakhimova in straight sets!#TennisParadise pic.twitter.com/Cg7bx7rnvO Gauff displayed a full toolkit against the No. An accomplished doubles player, Gauff moved forward when the opportunities presented themselves and knocked off some crisp volleys. Gauff's speed and instinct make her one of the game's best defenders. She repeatedly tracked down Rakhimova's shots deep in the corners. On the other side, knowing what Gauff was capable of, Rakhimova consistently overhit balls from neutral positions. Double faults have plagued Gauff this season -- only Kimberly Birrell (88) has more than her 86 -- and they were again a factor Friday. Eala won three straight games to complete the 7-5, 4-6, 7-5 victory just before midnight local time. "I think focus was a huge part of the match today. She played really well, in my opinion," Eala said. "I had to really go after all the balls and trust my gut. I think mental fortitude was a big part of today's game. "I think that this match could have gone either way. I tried to remind myself I was still in the game and just kept there, stayed there, and kept fighting." Yastremska is now 0-2 against Eala at the WTA Tour level. The win sets up a quarterfinal matchup between Eala and fourth-seeded Gauff. It will be the second meeting between the two, with Gauff winning their quarterfinal match in Dubai last month while losing only two games. "I think it's definitely going to be a tough one," Eala said. "Coco is an amazing player and playing at home. I'm expecting a big crowd to rally behind her just because she's amazing. After both players secured second-round wins Friday, Coco Gauff's next test at the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells will come from rising 20-year-old Alex Eala, who continues to build momentum in Tennis Paradise.

Though Tennis Paradise has seen its fair share of big-name doubles teams over the years looking for extra match play or a longer tenure amongst the scenery, Djokovic's decision to take part in this pairing sends a message, too.In his pre-event press conference, Djokovic said that his run to the final of the Australian Open in January, where he beat Jannik Sinner in a five-set semifinal before losing in four to Carlos Alcaraz in the title match, showed that he "still [has] that edge."

Marton Fucsovics earned just his second Top 5 win and first in nearly six years on Friday at the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells, where he stunned World No. Musetti was competing for the first time since he was forced to retire from his Australian Open quarter-final against Novak Djokovic with a psoas muscle injury when leading by two sets to love. The Hungarian played with high intensity and capitalised on a misfiring performance from the Italian to improve to 4-35 against Top 10 opponents, according to the Infosys ATP Win/Loss Index. Fucsovics' previous Top 5 win came against Daniil Medvedev at Roland Garros in 2020, with this his first Top 10 victory on a hard court. 56 player in the PIF ATP Rankings Fucsovics will next meet Arthur Fils after the Frenchman advanced when Croatian qualifier Dino Prizmic retired. Fils, who returned to Tour last month following a back injury, was leading 6-2, 3-2. In other action, for a large period, eighth seed Ben Shelton appeared on course to join fifth seed Lorenzo Musetti in an early exit from the ATP Masters 1000 event. Shelton came within two points of defeat when he trailed 4/5 in the second-set tie-break. Yet Opelka faltered at the crucial moment, losing both points on his serve to hand Shelton a lifeline. Nevertheless, Shelton quickly recovered, regained his composure and eventually sealed the win after two hours and 13 minutes, during which he appeared physically unwell and struggled to find his normal infectious energy. “I think every week we go through something, maybe not at full 100 per cent," Shelton said. The Top 10 star, who advanced to the quarter-finals in Indian Wells last year, will next face Learner Tien. You May Also Like: Tien moves behind Roddick on exclusive list...
