Roger Federer
Former champions Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal breezed through their
Indian Wells openers and Serena Williams stepped up her comeback from a
14-year boycott with a similar crushing victory Sunday, AFP reports.
Second seed Federer opened his bid for a
fifth Indian Wells title by easing to a 6-4, 6-2 second round victory
over Argentina’s Diego Schwartzman. Nadal also opened his campaign on a
successful note, blitzing Igor Sijsling 6-4, 6-2 in the joint WTA and
ATP hardcourt tournament.
Federer, who is making his 15th
appearance in the California desert, advances to the third round, where
he will face Italy’s Andreas Seppi, who beat Federer earlier this year
at the Australian Open.
