The Indian Wells Open is one of the most prestigious tournaments of the calendar and that also shows up in the prize money.

Indian Wells is often called ‘the fifth grand slam event’, as it’s considered one of the most important tournaments of the season, not only for the quality of the players taking part in it but also for its prize money.

One more year, the top players gather in the Californian desert to compete at the highest level and try to go all the way. Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner are two of the main favorites alongside Daniil Medvedev, as Novak Djokovic was defeated in one of the biggest shocks in recent history. The Serb was outpowered by the young and talented Luca Nardi against all odds, leaving the draw in an interesting situation.

Meanwhile, Coco Gauff, Iga Swiatek, Aryna Sabalenka, and Elena Rybakina are some of the best players who are still competing in the tournament, with the Kazakh looking to defend her title after beating Sabalenka in last year’s final.
