The Indian Wells Open is the first ATP Masters 1000 event of the ATP Tour season, while it is the third WTA 1000 tournament of the 2025 calendar.

The event officially goes by the name BNP Paribas Open as the French financial institution is the title sponsor and big money has gone into this year’s tournament.

The total financial commitment for the 2025 edition is just over $19m – up 7.76% from 2024 – with $9,693,540 in prize money up for grabs at both the men’s competition and on the women’s side.

Carlos Alcaraz and Iga Swiatek won the titles last year and each title winner received a cheque of $1,100,000 and 1,000 ranking points while the runners-up Daniil Medvedev and Maria Sakkari were awarded $585,000 in prize money.

Both Alcaraz and Swiatek are looking to win their third titles in California with the former eyeing three in a row following his 2023 and 2024 runs while the Pole also won the title in 2022.

The Indian Wells, which forms part of the Sunshine Double along with the Miami Open, is considered one of the biggest 1000 events on both calendars and is a favourite among both fans and players.

Besides being treated like royalty at the Tennis Paradise, players also earn top dollar for their work over the fortnight. Although some will be going home after just one round, they will still be richly rewarded.

This year’s winners will receive $1,201,125 – up 9.19% from the 2024 total – but those who lose in the first round will earn less than they did last year as they will go home with $25,375 compared to $30,050 in 2024.
