Images from Indian Wells: Lisicki and Pennetta steal the show

Capture and Caption: Over the final few days of the BNP Paribas Open at Indian Wells, photographer Anita Aguilar and senior writer Steve Tignor will recap all the matches.

Lesia Tsurenko, 25 and ranked No. 85, had the tournament of her career in Indian Wells, but it ended on Thursday in unfortunate fashion. A rolled ankle from her previous match, a win over Eugenie Bouchard, forced her to retire against Jelena Jankovic.

How many times can a player come out of nowhere before we start to expect it? The 30-year-old JJ keeps doing it. From the evidence of this shot, she hasn’t lost a step.

Jankovic and positive emotion aren’t the first things you normally associate with each other, but she was in full roar against Tsurenko on Thursday.

Where is Andy Murray in this shot? It’s hard to say, but wherever he goes against Feliciano Lopez, it’s the right spot. He improved his record to 10-0 against the Spaniard.

Does Murray have Hawk-Eye working in the middle of a point here?

After 15 years of trying, Lopez reached his first quarterfinal at Indian Wells.

But he went no further.

Lopez moves on to Miami, while Murray has a semifinal date with Novak Djokovic.

Sabine Lisicki catches air in her eventful three-set win over Flavia Pennetta, in which she saved three match points.

Lisicki was 1-6 before getting to Indian Wells, but now finds herself in the semifinals.

Defending champion Flavia Pennetta battled back from a set down, but couldn't close in the third.

Still, Pennetta backed up her title with style.
