The Australian has had a good run so far at the BNP Paribas Open, albeit in singles this time around. He received a wildcard entry to play at the tournament as his low ranking made him unable to qualify directly. Kyrgios opened his singles campaign against the Argentine, Sebastian Baez, dismantling him in straight sets 6-4, 6-0. Further, in the second round, he was up against Federico Delbonis from Argentina. He ran riot in the second round, winning his match 6-2, 6-2 in just over an hour.
Subsequently, Kyrgios knocked out the eighth seed, Casper Ruud, in the third round 6-4, 6-4. Earlier today, he received a walk-over in his pre-quarterfinal match against Jannik Sinner, after the latter withdrew due to illness.
