Novak Djokovic will remain with five Masters trophies in Indian Wells, as he was eliminated at the start of the major tournament - he was defeated in three sets by Botik van de Zandschulp - 2:6, 6:3, 1:6.
The most decorated tennis player started off in a bad rhythm, missing from created positions and being unconvincing, especially on his second serve.
In the second set, he raised his level of play, but in the third set he was unrecognizable again, so the Dutchman Van de Zandschulp tied the match in head-to-head duels, one defeat and one victory.
In the next round, the 85th ranked player in the world, Van de Zandschulp will play against Argentine, Francisco Serundoli, the 25th seed in Indian Wells.
