2023 BNP Paribas Open – Men's singles

Carlos Alcaraz defeated Daniil Medvedev in the final, 6–3, 6–2 to win the men's singles tennis title at the 2023 Indian Wells Masters. He did not drop a set en route to his third Masters 1000 title and eighth ATP Tour title overall. With the win, he regained the world No. 1 singles ranking from Novak Djokovic,[1] who was unable to enter the United States due to being unvaccinated for COVID-19.[2] Alcaraz also ended the 19-match winning streak of Medvedev, who was the first Russian to contest the final since Andrei Chesnokov in 1992.
