–

INDIAN WELLS, Calif. – The American women dominate the two biggest courts on the site, with Dayana Yastremska’s match against Caroline Garcia the only exception on Stadium 1.

Canadian Gabriela Dabrowski jumps right into action on the first day with partner Giuliana Olmos of Mexico, and gets it done.

Note: No. 1 seed Barbora Krejcikova withdrew late. And so Alizé Cornet becomes the No. 33 seed and moves into her spot at the top of the draw.
