Coco Gauff moved into the round of 16 at the BNP Paribas Open on Monday with a straight-sets win over Maria Sakkari, but the No. 3 seed admitted she was disappointed with how she closed out the match despite the win. Gauff won 7-6 (1), 6-2 at Indian Wells, exacting revenge after falling to Maria Sakkari in last year’s semifinals.

Coco Gauff emerged from her slump at the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells, but she is still heading home to Florida earlier than she would have liked. The American world No. 3 won two matches here, but then lost to Belinda Bencic of Switzerland Wednesday in the round of 16 in three sets.
