Indian Wells, United States: Plucky Swiss teenager Belinda Bencic pulled off the biggest win of her young career Monday at Indian Wells by upsetting world number five Caroline Wozniacki in straight sets. The 18-year-old Bencic, who had never beaten a top-five player, won 6-4, 6-4 in the third round of the WTA and ATP hardcourt tournament. "I am very happy. I'm really excited," Bencic said.


Caroline Wozniacki returns to Belinda Bencic on Monday 

"I always watched her on TV or when I was a small girl she was my idol and a role model for me and for my game." Wozniacki, a former Indian Wells champion who is seeded fourth, won her 23rd career singles title just two weeks ago in Kuala Lumpur. Bencic had played Wozniacki just once before in Istanbul, Turkey last year where she was crushed 6-0, 6-0. Asked Monday what the biggest difference between the two matches was, Bencic joked, "I won a game."
