Yuan Yue battles into Indian Wells quarters
China's Yuan Yue battled through to Indian Wells quarterfinals after she defeated No. 11 seed Daria Kasatkina in three sets on Wednesday.
The 25-year-old Austin champion extended her winning streak to nine matches as she outlasted Kasatkina 4-6, 6-4, 6-3 in two and a half hours.
"I am super happy today. Even though I felt tired during the match, I kept my confidence that I could do well," she said.
"I made too many mistakes in the first set, but I well adjusted myself in the second set," she added.
Yuan next faces third seed Coco Gauff who dispatched German Elise Mertens 6-0, 6-2.
Yuan was fresh from winning her first WTA Tour title at the 2024 ATX Open, and made her Top 50 debut the following week as a result. In the final, Yuan defeated Wang Xiyu in the fourth all-Chinese final in tour history and the first since Nanchang 2018 when Wang Qiang defeated Zheng Saisai.
