Ivan Ljubicic of Croatia beat Andy Roddick 7-6(3), 7-6(5) to win the BNP Paribas Open men's title.

Ljubicic won on his fourth match point Sunday, blasting a big serve that Roddick couldn't return.

At the age of 31, Ljubicic is the second-oldest winner at Indian Wells behind Jimmy Connors, whowas five months older when he won in 1984.

Roddick was trying to become the first American man to win since 2001, but he trailed in both tiebreakers. He had beaten Ljubicic seven times in ten meetings, winning their last meeting at Indian Wells in two tiebreakers in 2007.

Jelena Jankovic defeated Caroline Wozniacki 6-2, 6-4 earlier Sunday to win the women's title, the Serbian's first in seven months.
