British number one Johanna Konta is out of the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells after a 6-3 3-6 6-7(1) third-round defeat to France's Caroline Garcia.

British number one Johanna Konta has been knocked out of the BNP Paribas Masters at Indian Wells after losing 3-6 6-3 7-6(1) to Caroline Garcia in the third round.

Konta, seeded 11th, broke 21st seed Garcia in the fourth game of the first set and appeared on course for a place in the last 16.

France's Garcia, however, capitalised on Konta's continued struggles with her first serve to break in the second to level matters before dominating a third-set tie-break to secure her spot in the next round.

She will now face either Roberta Vinci or Svetlana Kuznetsova for a place in the quarter-finals.
