Watson advances in Miami as Nadal quits

Britain's Heather Watson battled back from a set down to reach the fourth round of the Miami Open.

Watson showed plenty of determination to beat the Belgian world number 47 Yanina Wickmayer 3-6 7-5 6-3.

The British number two had to save five break points across her final two service games in the second set to level the match and took control in the third set to secure the win.

She will face either Simona Halep or Julia Goerges in the next round.
