How to watch Indian Wells 2025: live stream tennis online, seeds, what TV channel, Day 12 schedule
Carlos Alcaraz and Iga Swiatek defend their titles at the BNP Paribas Open, AKA Indian Wells

Watch Indian Wells 2025 as the ATP and WTA calendars combine for the unofficial fifth grand slam at the cavernous Tennis Garden in the California desert.
In the men's singles semi-finals there were two monster upsets as Jack Draper and Holger Rune beat Carlos Alcaraz and Daniil Medvedev respectively. Draper's three-set win over Alcaraz was his first against the Spaniard and will now move into the world's top 10 next week as a result of reaching his first Masters 1000 final. Rune, meanwhile, is also seeking a first Masters title (albeit at the fourth attempt) after a straight sets win over fifth seed Medvedev. What wins: Draper's shot-making or Rune's movement around the court?
The women's singles went from procession to genuine intrigue for the semi-finals in the Californian desert. In a classic, 17-year-old sensation Mirra Andreeva beat second seed Iga Swiatek in a three-setter that displayed all the Russian's devastating hitting in increasingly windy and testing conditions. Andreeva will face Aryna Sabalenka in Sunday's final after the top seed destroyed Madison Keys – her conqueror in the Australian Open final – for the loss of just one game.
Below we have all the information on how to watch Indian Wells tennis from anywhere in the world with details on worldwide TV channels, broadcasters and any free streams.

Day 12 schedule – Sunday, March 16
After a week and a half's scintillating tennis, it's the biggies – the men's and women's singles finals.
First up is Aryna Sabalenka against Mirra Andreeva. Both have huge games, with top seed Sabalenka having greater experience at this level as a multi-time grand slam champion. Her 17-year-old opponent, though, has cut a swathe through the tournament, became the youngster winner of a Masters 1000 even in Qatar and beat Iga Swiatek in the semis. It should be a cracker.
Next is the men's singles final no one expected. Jack Draper's three-set defeat of Carlos Alcaraz was a stunning display of the 22-year-old British lefty's big game, holding his nerve to get over the line and into a first Masters final. Holger Rune, meanwhile, was ruthless in disposing of two-time runner-up Daniil Medvedev in the other semi – the Dane is a supreme mover, making this a stylistic clash that should set pulses racing. Don't miss it.

More about the tennis players in Indian Wells 2025
Novak Djokovic – with coach Andy Murray again in his corner after their Australian Open trial – fell at the first hurdle in his attempt to add a sixth title to his stellar Indian Wells resumé. Melbourne Park runner-up Alexander Zverev also fell in the second round to make Carlos Alcaraz the overwhelming men's favorite. Ben Shelton, semi-finalist in Australia, will be a home hopeful to go with third seed (and 2022 champion) Taylor Fritz.
The women's singles is wide open. Iga Swiatek may have won two of the past three titles at Indian Wells, but hard courts are far from the Pole's favorite surface, while top seed Aryna Sabalenka has struggled in 2025 since losing the Australian Open final to a resurgent Madison Keys. Keys is the only player on tour to win two titles this year and should be inspired by a home crowd that will also cheer for third seed Coco Gauff.
Finally, fresh from becoming the youngest Masters 1000 winner in Dubai, 17-year-old Mirra Andreeva will be looking to back that triumph up with her biggest win yet. The Russian has looked in good form, too.
