INDIAN WELLS, Calif. – The women’s main draw begins Wednesday. But the men still had to wrap up the final round of qualifying.

The only Canadian in either qualifying draw, Vasek Pospisil, struggled physically Tuesday but managed to get past Egor Gerasimov.

Against an in-form Thanasi Kokkinakis for a spot in the main draw, the bod wasn’t up to it.
