ATP DRAW 2024 Indian Wells Open confirmed including Carlos ALCARAZ, Novak DJOKOVIC, Rafael NADAL and Jannik SINNER

The ATP Draw has been confirmed ahead of the 2024 Indian Wells Open (BNP Paribas Open) which will take place between 6-17 March, 2024 in beautiful California as part of the so-called Sunshine Double which is headlined by Novak Djokovic making his return for the first time since 2019.

Not allowed to enter the US till post Indian Wells and Miami last year due to the COVID restrictions, Djokovic has remained absent from these two tournaments. But he will return at Indian Wells this week. He faces Aleksandar Vukic or a qualifier in the second round.

Carlos Alcaraz who is defending champion faces Luca van Assche or Matteo Arnaldi in the second round as he begins his title defence. While Rafael Nadal opens with two tricky tasks as he faces Milos Raonic and could then face Tommy Paul. Daniil Medvedev faces Flavio Cobolli or Roberto Carballes Baena, while Jannik Sinner is set for Marcos Giron or Thanasi Kokkinakis.

Andrey Rublev could face Andy Murray in the second round, while Alexander Zverev could face Jack Draper early on. Some tricky tasks in store for some of the big names, but it is the start of the Sunshine Double and a great week awaits.
