Roger Federer had a difficult start Indian Wells, but for him Igor Andreev is a difficult play to beat.
In the previous 3 encounters with the Russian, the Swiss always dropped at least one set and he was twice 1 set down.
The 3 times champion struggled the whole first set to find a way to beat the Russian.

Than Andreev managed to hang on and the match was decided at the tie break (4).
