Roger Federer

Roger Federer has another outstanding match in Indian Wells to dispatch Kyle Edmund in straight sets.

The match

Kyle Edmund was supposed to be a tough hurdle since the Brit was coming from a 7-matches winning streak in Indian Wells where he won the Challenger 35 before reaching the 4th round.

However, Federer was in one of his days, and after a tough hold in the 3rd game, he grabbed a fast 5-0 lead before winning the opener 6-1.

The second set was more balanced. Federer got the decisive break in the 5th game, but he had to save 4 break points in the last 2 service games before winning 6-1 6-4 in 63 minutes.
