Jannik Sinner won the BNP Paribas Open men's singles title at Indian Wells by defeating Daniil Medvedev in the final. Medvedev had advanced by upsetting Carlos Alcaraz in the semifinals, while Sinner beat Alexander Zverev earlier. Sinner became the first man since 1990 to claim consecutive Masters 1000 titles without dropping a set.
Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner have narrowed the gap to Andy Murray's all-time ATP prize money total following recent tournament earnings and a profit-sharing distribution. Alcaraz trails Murray by about $413,000 after his Indian Wells semifinal run and additional payments. Sinner surpassed $60 million in career earnings after winning the BNP Paribas Open.
