adminINDIAN WELLS. — Novak Djokovic made it safely into the third round of the Indian Wells ATP Masters tennis tournament on Sunday, but said his straight-sets win over Victor Hanescu left room for improvement.The world number two and second seed, a two-time winner in the California desert, saved all five break points he faced on the way to a 7-6 (7/1), 6-2 victory.
“It was one of those days where you get to serve well and everything else is just kind of trying to find the way to play the right shots at the right time,” said Djokovic, who notched his seventh win over the 87th-ranked Romanian in as many career meetings.
“I didn’t make any returns in the first set. Second set I also struggled with the return, which is one of my better sides in the game generally speaking.” — AFP.
