Indian Wells Open 2026 tennis order of play and TV coverage – Wednesday 4 March
We've rounded up the full Indian Wells Open 2026 TV details, schedule and order of play today.
The top players in Tennis will flock to California this week for the Indian Wells Open 2026.
The hard court tournament, which is an ATP 1000 and WTA 1000 event, is seen by many as the sport's fifth major – attracting a star-studded field and huge crowds to match that title.
British No.1 Jack Draper, who returned from injury at the Dubai Tennis Championships at the end of February, returns to defend his 2025 title but faces competition from the best the men's game has to offer, including Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner, and Novak Djokovic.
The women's draw is just as stacked. Emma Raducanu is one of four Brits in a talent-packed field that includes all the big names, including Aryna Sabalenka, Iga Swiatek, Coco Gauff, and defending champion Mirra Andreeva.
All the seeded players, including Draper, Raducanu, and compatriot Cameron Norrie, have a bye into the second round, which starts on Friday.
The heady combination of the world's top players, the hard courts of Indian Wells, and the Californian sun always makes for a thrilling watch – and the good news for viewers in the UK is there will be extensive coverage throughout.
