Emma Raducanu earns three-set win over Caroline Garcia at Indian Wells

Emma Raducanu overcame Caroline Garcia of France 6-1 3-6 6-1 at Indian Wells to make it through to the third round.

The 19-year-old British number one raced into a 3-0 lead and, after saving four break points in the fifth game, impressively took the first set.

Garcia was more of a threat in the second set and broke Raducanu three times on the way to levelling.

In the decider, Raducanu again went 3-0 up and was more convincing on her serve as she went on to secure victory.

The US Open champion will play world number 79 Petra Martic of Croatia in the next round.
