Dominic Thiem is set to make a return to Indian Wells for the first time since his title run in 2019 and he's excited about the prospect of being back there.
Thiem is currently in Buenos Aires and he finally got a win as he looks to rebuild his career after battling injuries. The Austrian will be looking to continue that positive trend in Indian Wells as he's done it in the past. Thiem won the event the last time he played there in 2019 and he hopes 2023 will bring him some more success.
He got a wild card entry into the main draw so he won't have to bother with the qualifiers that might have cost him an appearance altogether. He confirmed the news on social media thanking the organizers for giving him a wild card entry:
"Hello Indian Wells, today I received the great message that I will get a wildcard for 2023 BNP Paribas Open. Its unbelievable news for me as it is a tournament I love and it's gonna be the first time I play there since I won the tournament in 2019, so looking forward to see you all there. Thank you."

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
