The Masters 1000 of surprises continues.
In Indian Wells Cameron Norrie will challenge Nikoloz Basilashvili for the title: neither had ever gone so far in a 1000. The British defeated Grigor Dimitrov 6-2 6-4, the Georgian eliminated 7-6 (5) 6-3 Taylor Fritz who had defeated Matteo Berrettini, Jannik Sinner and Alexander Zverev.
Norrie, in the first Masters final of her career, considerably shortens the distance from Jannik Sinner in the 'Race to Turin': by winning the tournament, she would also overtake Jannik Sinner, and would find herself just over 100 points behind the Polish Hubert Hurkacz, today virtually last of the qualify for the Finals.
