The draw has been confirmed for the first part of the so called Sunshine Double in the form of the
Indian Wells Open which is set to take place between March 6 - March 17, 2024 in California with
Iga Swiatek as top seed and
Elena Rybakina as defending champion.
Swiatek will face off against Danielle Collins in her second round and could feasibly face Linda Noskova in an Australian Open rematch or even recent San Diego champion, Katie Boulter.
Elena Rybakina as defending champion faces either Paula Badosa or Ashlyn Krueger in her opener and sits in the same section as Dubai finalist, Anna Kalinskaya. Coco Gauff will face Xiyu Wang or Clara Burel. While second seed
Aryna Sabalenka faces Elisabetta Cocciereto or Peyton Stearns. Jessica Pegula faces Anna Blinkova or Karolina Plisova.
While Emma Raducanu could feasibly face Aryna Sabalenka if she gets past Dayana Yastremska in what is a tough final quarter.
