Juan Martin del Potro saved three match points in a thrilling final at the BNP Paribas Open on Sunday before handing world number one Roger Federer his first loss of the year and claiming his maiden Masters 1000 title.
The Argentine stunned a raucous Indian Wells crowd that had been loudly backing Federer to continue his winning streak and secure the biggest win in the nine years since his U.S. Open title triumph with a 6-4 6-7(8) 7-6(2) victory.
"I had a great run again this week," Federer says on court. "We love coming here. ... There was not much in between us, but you (del Potro) deserve it. Enjoy the moment."
"See you all next year." #BNPPO18 pic.twitter.com/70zTWxqU6P

"We played a great level of tennis," del Potro tells reporters. "I cannot believe that I won this final. ... I'm excited to keep working hard; I want to win more titles like this" #BNPPO18 pic.twitter.com/OTadVhoLFaFederer, the defending champion, had chalked up 17 consecutive wins in 2018, a run which included his 20th grand slam title at the Australian Open, but was unable to outlast his determined 29-year-old opponent.
