great victory of Facundo Bagnis in Indian Wells. The current No. 82 in the world beat Henri Laaksonen (87th) in straight sets 6-3, 7-6 (4) to settle in the second round of the American contest.
For the native of Rosario it was not another victory. It is that at the Masters 1000 level he had not won since 2017 (the previous one had also been on Californian soil) when he defeated Frenchman Julien Benneteau.
In the next instance Bagnis will play against South African Lloyd Harris (32nd), rival he never faced in his career. He comes from competing in Dubai, Doha and Rotterdam. In all three tournaments he was eliminated in the first round.
