Kevin Anderson has progressed to the third round of the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells with a 3-6 6-4 6-3 victory over David Ferrer.
Ferrer lost his serve early in the first set, but he broke back twice on his way to taking it 6-3.

The South African built on his second-set triumph and won the decider 6-3 with fourth-seeded Ferrer providing little opposition.
