Carlos Alcaraz remained on course to defend the BNP Paribas Open title in Indian Wells after ending Jannik Sinner's perfect start to the year with a thrilling three-set win. Just three games were played before a three-hour rain delay in the California desert, but when they returned it was Alcaraz who found a way to turn to contest on its head and make it through to his sixth Masters 1000 final thanks to a 1-6 6-3 6-2 victory.
Medvedev would also endure a laboured first set in his clash with Paul, before holding off his opponent in a second-set tiebreaker on his way to victory after a comfortable third. It marks a repeat of the 2023 final at Indian Wells, when Alcaraz beat Medvedev 6-3 6-2. 'I saw Carlos today, he was playing pretty well, second and third set especially,' Medvedev said.
