Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz are two of the biggest names on the tennis circuit today. Now, they are expected to renew their rivalry again at Indian Wells. This comes from their high-quality Australian Open quarterfinal earlier this year.

Two-time defending champion Carlos Alcaraz, five-time Indian Wells winner Novak Djokovic and American firepower led by former winner Taylor Fritz and Ben Shelton take the court on the men's side. Women's second-round play features Australian Open champion Madison Keys, third-seeded American Coco Gauff and top-seed Aryna Sabalenka.

Carlos Alcaraz says he will try "not to think" about the possibility of joining Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic in the Indian Wells Masters history books but admits he would absolutely love to join the two tennis giants in emulating a notable record.

Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz were drawn to meet in a potential blockbuster quarterfinal at the upcoming Indian Wells Masters 1000 tournament. The showdown would be a rematch of the Australian Open quarterfinal won by Djokovic before he retired during his semifinal with Alexander Zverev.

The Serbian tennis star is returning to Indian Wells having played a single match since the Australian Open in January.

Botic Van de Zandschulp secured a walkover to the second round of Indian Wells, as Nick Kyrgios suffered another injury and the setback reduced him to tears.
