The draw for the 2026 BNP Paribas Open<\/a> in Indian Wells will take place on Monday, 2 March at 3 p.m. PST (6 p.m. EST\/11 p.m. GMT). The No. 1 player in the PIF ATP Rankings Carlos Alcaraz<\/a>, No. 2 Jannik Sinner<\/a> and joint-record five-time champion Novak Djokovic<\/a> will headline a star-studded field at the opening ATP Masters 1000 event of the season, where main-draw play takes place from 4\u201315 March. <\/p>\n Their rivals chasing success in the California desert include World No. 3 Alexander Zverev<\/a>, home favourites Taylor Fritz<\/a> and Ben Shelton<\/a>, and defending champion Jack Draper<\/a>. <\/p>\n Fans in the United States can watch the draw on Tennis Channel 2 and the Tennis Channel App. ATP Tour channels will have all you need to know about the draw shortly after it is complete.<\/p>\n You May Also Like: BNP Paribas Open 2026: Draws, Dates, History & All You Need To Know<\/a><\/p>\n Alcaraz will enter Indian Wells aiming to maintain his perfect record in 2026. The 22-year-old Spaniard is 12-0 for the season, according to the Infosys ATP Win\/Loss Index, after lifting trophies at the Australian Open<\/a> and the Qatar ExxonMobil Open<\/a> in Doha. Alcaraz is a two-time titlist in Indian Wells, where he triumphed in 2023 and 2024. <\/p>\n His great rival Sinner is chasing his maiden Indian Wells trophy. His best runs at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden came in 2023 and 2024: On both occasions, Sinner fell to eventual champion Alcaraz in the semi-finals, and he arrives in \u2018Tennis Paradise\u2019 this year trailing the Spaniard 6-10 in the pair\u2019s Lexus ATP Head2Head series. <\/p>\n Meanwhile Djokovic will aim to bounce back quickly from his Australian Open<\/a> final defeat to Alcaraz with a strong showing in Indian Wells. The 38-year-old is looking for a sixth BNP Paribas Open<\/a> crown to move clear of Roger Federer<\/a> for the most men\u2019s singles titles won in the California desert.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Indian Wells How can you watch the Indian Wells draw?
