Here is the full players entry list for BNP Paribas Open 2023, check out who is playing and who is not in the Indian Wells this year
The BNP Paribas Open, an ATP 1000 competition in Indian Wells that is one of the biggest tennis events after the four Grand Slams, is set to return in March.
At Indian Wells, every player who is in good health competes, and this year’s entry list once again includes well-known athletes.
The event will be played from March 6 to March 19.

World No. 1 Novak Djokovic is in charge of it, but he might pull out since he might not be allowed to enter the US.
Another bad news is about Rafael Nadal! The Spaniard pulls out of his exhibition match with Carlos Alcaraz which was scheduled for March 5 in Las Vegas. Alcaraz will now play the winner of the game between Frances Tiafoe and Taylor Fritz.
Also to think, if Nadal cannot play on March 5, it is unlikely that he will be able to play in the Indian Wells a few days later.
While Nadal and Djokovic are uncertain, young athletes like Carlos Alcaraz, Stefanos Tsitsipas, Casper Ruud, Felix Auger-Aliassime, and Holger Rune are there to excite the crowd.
Taylor Fritz is the current winner, and the Big Three have failed to win at Indian Wells in the previous three years. Since 2018, Juan Martín Del Potro, Dominic Thiem, and Cameron Norrie have taken home the titles before the competition was renounced in 2020.
Norrie will compete in 2023, while Thiem got the wild card for the main event as he had to wait following his low ranking.
There are numerous well-known names on the entry list, including Matteo Berrettini, Nick Kyrgios, Frances Tiafoe, Alexander Zverev, Daniil Medvedev, and many more.
