Sonay Kartal’s unexpected entry into the Indian Wells main draw left her briefly without accommodations. Despite this, she’s making an impressive run.

Sonay Kartal's dream run at Indian Wells continues as the British lucky loser beats Polina Kudermetova to reach the fourth round.

A week can be a long time in tennis, as British No 3 Sonay Kartal demonstrated by surging into the fourth round of Indian Wells.

Draper and world No 83 Sonay Kartal are the only remaining Brits in the tournament after Cameron Norrie and Katie Boulter both lost in the third round. Kartal, who lost in the final round of qualifying but earned a main draw spot as a lucky loser, continued a career-best run with a third-round victory over Polina Kudermetova.

Sonay Kartal was cast in the shadow of Emma Raducanu at the start of her career, but she is shining in her own right now.
