TV Guide BNP Paribas Open Indian Wells as Sunshine Double begins

The BNP Paribas Open Indian Wells will feature the world's best tennis players and fans will be able to enjoy it from all over the world.

The tournament held in California is one of the most anticipated by tennis players and fans. For many, it is the "fifth Grand Slam" because of its main draw with more players than other Master 1000 tournaments (96 players), its great tradition, and its wealthy prize money, which make it a must-stop for all top tennis players. Although there are some big absences this year, there are still several players who will fight for the trophy.

On the men's side, the main favorites seem to be Daniil Medvedev and Carlos Alcaraz, after the absence of Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic was confirmed. But players like Stefanos Tsitsipas, Casper Ruud, and the 2022 champion Taylor Fritz also have something to say. In the women's draw, the absences of former World No. 2 Anett Kontaveit and young star Zheng Qinwen from China are the most notable.

Although no longer the almost invincible player of last season, the main candidate is the World No. 1 Iga Swiatek, who’ll try to retain the trophy she won in 2022, but Aryna Sabalenka, Elena Rybakina, or local players Coco Gauff and Jessica Pegula will try to take the crown from the Polish player.
