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.

Carlos Alcaraz is looking to win his third consecutive title and Iga Swiatek is defending the crown she won in 2022 and 2024 — but plenty of other players go into the first event of the “Sunshine Double” with points to prove — to themselves if to no one else.
