Top-seeded Daniil Medvedev beat Filip Krajinovic 6-2 7-6 (1) to reach the round of 16 on a gusty at the BNP Paribas Open.
Karolina Plisova, the women’s top seed, was upset by Beatriz Haddad Maia.
Medvedev, the U.S. Open champion, connected on 70% of his first serves and fired four aces despite challenging weather conditions.
Haddad Maia got into the main draw as a lucky loser. She lost in the final round of qualifying and got in when No. 29 seed Nadia Podoroska withdrew with a thigh injury. Haddad Maia inherited Podoroska’s first-round bye and then beat Mayir Sherif in the second round.
