How can I watch Indian Wells ATP?

  • Posted: Mar 02, 2026

The first ATP Masters 1000 event of the season begins on Wednesday at the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells. Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner, Novak Djokovic and defending champion Jack Draper are among the stars that will headline the tournament.

The 50th edition of the tour-level event will be broadcast worldwide and you can view how to watch the tournament in your region here.

The hard-court event was won in 2025 by first-time Masters 1000 champion Draper, who defeated Holger Rune in the championship match. Draper returned from a left arm injury last week in Dubai, where he reached the second round.

The No. 1 player in the PIF ATP Rankings Alcaraz has triumphed in Indian Wells in 2024 and 2023 and arrives in the Californian desert holding a perfect 12-0 record on the year, according to the Infosys ATP Win/Loss Index. Alcaraz became the youngest man to complete the Career Grand Slam at the Australian Open and then won his 13th ATP 500 title in Doha.

Second seed Jannik Sinner has won all five of the other hard-court Masters 1000 trophies but is yet to reign in Indian Wells. The second-seeded Italian, who is a two-time semi-finalist in California, will find out his opening-round opponent during the draw on Monday at 3 p.m. local time.

On home soil, Taylor Fritz will look to recapture the title he won in 2022, the most recent triumph by an American man at the tournament. Djokovic, a five-time champion in the desert, is tied with Roger Federer for the record for most titles at the event, though the Serbian has not lifted the trophy since 2016.
