Sonay Kartal has put together one heck of a run to the fourth round at Indian Wells.
After saving a match point to upset Emma Navarro in the second round, Kartal worked her magic again Monday night, rallying from a set down to upend 2025 semifinalist Madison Keys 2-6, 6-2, 6-3 in just under two hours. The win sends her into the Round of 16 for the second straight year.
