BNP Paribas Open - Indian Wells

An ATP Masters 1000 on outdoor hard in Indian Wells, a fortnight before Miami. The Laykold plays slowish for a hard court, so the ball sits up and a first strike rarely finishes the point on its own. Holds sit at 81%, a fifth of sets reach a tiebreak and roughly two thirds of matches end in straights, so the favourite has room to work. Djokovic has four titles here, Alcaraz two.
