Who has won the Indian Wells tennis title?
Carlos Alcaraz is aiming to win his third title at the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells this fortnight.
The No. 1 player in the PIF ATP Rankings, who triumphed in 2023-24, would become just the fifth player with three or more trophies at the ATP Masters 1000 event. Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer hold the record for the most titles (five) in Indian Wells.
Former World No. 1 Jimmy Connors won the first edition of the event in 1976, which was the first of three titles he claimed. Jack Draper is the most recent champion in Indian Wells, having defeated Alcaraz and Holger Rune en route to the 2025 trophy.
