Zeynep Sonmez vs McCartney Kessler 2026 Indian Wells Round 1 WTA Match Highlights

Not keeping that going. Just creates these monstrous angles sometimes. Lovely seeing people. Another of those deceptive angles generated by the American. Oh, that's wonderful. What a great response from Cernmaz. Kessler just charged through the first three games, winning them in under 10 minutes. Oh, well done. That is a superb first set from Zeynep Cernmaz because she was looking virtually out of it at three love down in double quick time. Oh, that's an important passing shot. What a good hold of serve. That could be a very big part of the battle won. Kessler's got about a third of her. That feeling of somebody who's galvanized. Oh, that's extraordinary. Match point. Sometimes early trends in a tennis match are completely misleading. Zeynep Cernmaz was three love down after about 10 minutes. She won an extremely tough first set and then flew through the second and in the process has become the first woman from Turkey ever to win a main draw singles match at Indian Wells. 7-6, six love. She's into round two.
