INDIAN WELLS, California - Novak Djokovic extended his winning streak to 19 matches with a 6-0, 5-7, 6-2 victory over Fabio Fognini in the second round of the BNP Paribas Open on Sunday.

Djokovic held serve for a 5-2 lead in the final set, then had a pair of match points after a crisp forehand to the corner.

Fognini saved the first match point but lost both his serve and the match hitting a seemingly easy backhand into the net.

U.S. Open champion Andy Murray earlier had earned a 5-7, 6-2, 6-2 win over Evgeny Donskoy of Russia.

Women’s No. 2 Maria Sharapova advanced to the fourth round with a 7-5, 6-3 victory over Carla Suarez Navarro of Spain. AP
