–

More seeds fell (12) than advanced on the first day of qualifying at Indian Wells.

And that included old favorites like Diego Schwartzman and Benoit Paire.

Also – four of the six seeded Frenchmen fell.

And the two young Serbs: Adjukovic and Medjedovic.

But French wild card Lucas Pouille managed to pull off a comeback win. Which has to make him feel pretty good about thing, which haven’t been great for quite a few years now.
