Indian Wells was the first event to have Hawk-Eye on all courts and in 2021, it used Hawk-Eye live – electronic line-calling – on all courts, in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic. The BNP Paribas Open did not take place in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic and the related measures imposed by various government officials. The BNP Paribas Open, which is also known as the Indian Wells Masters, will be held from March 8 to 19, 2023. US law currently requires non-citizens to be vaccinated against Covid-19 in order to enter the country.

Why has Novak Djokovic withdrawn from Indian Wells? Why is the timing important? And will the world No. 1 play at the Miami Open this month?

He can also gain 240 points for finishing as runner-up, but Djokovic is 380 ahead, so Alcaraz needs to win the title to get to No. Alcaraz has a chance to finish Indian Wells as the world No. Alcaraz made the semis in Indian Wells last year so can gain a maximum of 640 additional ranking points this time around if he wins the title. Djokovic caused controversy last year when he only withdrew from Indian Wells after the draw had been made. If Alcaraz doesn't get to No. However, speaking before Djokovic withdrew from Indian Wells, Blake added: “If he’s allowed to play there [Indian Wells], then we’ll be very prepared for him to be in Miami, as well. Djokovic’s participation at the Miami Open is still unknown. Djokovic also missed large chunks of the 2022 season due to being unvaccinated. We can’t have the Miami Open after May 11. And will he also now miss the Miami Open? But as international Covid regulations are always being amended, I wanted to wait to see if anything would change.” Why has Djokovic pulled out from Indian Wells?

It was 10 years ago that Rafael Nadal secured his most recent victory at Indian Wells. We look back at his win over Juan Martin del Potro in the final.

Last year, he showed he can still contend as he won the Australian Open, ATP Acapulco, and made the final of Indian Wells. In fact, since 2013, Nadal has only played the Canadian Open and the Western & Southern Open in the same season twice. With his withdrawal from Indian Wells this year, it’s fair to wonder if Nadal will ever return to the tournament. “The thing that I am most proud about in my career probably is the 2013 year, 2013 was amazing. Perhaps the key moment of the contest came at 4-4 in the third set when Nadal saved three break points to hold. After skipping the Miami Open to rest his knee, he returned in dominant fashion on clay. He was the year-end No. He stuck with Del Potro when he was striking the ball brilliantly, and then upped his own game when the moment came. That was the difference." 1 for the third time. Being in the quarter-finals is a fantastic result for me, and we'll see." “It's very, very difficult to imagine something like this," said Nadal after reaching the final.
