Indian Wells (US), Oct 13: Upsets dominated the fourth round at the BNP Paribas Open, with three top-five seeds getting dismissed in straight sets.
No. 2 Iga Swiatek, the highest remaining women’s seed, lost to No. 24 Jelena Ostapenko 6-4, 6-3 on Tuesday. Ostapenko rallied from a break down in both sets on a day when the weather calmed down from the rain and wind that affected some of Monday’s matches.
