What Is The BNP Paribas Open?
The BNP Paribas Open (aka Indian Wells Masters) is a pro tennis tournament in Indian Wells, California. It is played on outdoor hard courts. It’s sometimes called the fifth Grand Slam tournament because it is the best-attended tennis tournament outside the four Grand Slam tournaments.
Where Is The BNP Paribas Open?
The event takes place at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden. The location contains two stadiums. One of the reasons why the BNP Paribas Open is so well attended is because the Indian Wells Tennis Garden’s Stadium 1, the second-largest permanent tennis stadium in the world, can accommodate 16,100 guests. Stadium 2 has a capacity of 8,000 people.
What Is Important About The Tournament?
It has become an important tournament because of its size. With the large crowd comes more prestige. The tournament is a multi-week 96-player field, both men’s and women’s, which draws plenty of talent worldwide.
Adding to that prestige is what has become known as the Sunshine Double or Grand Slam of the West. This is when a player (or doubles) wins the BNP Paribas Open and the Miami Open. Both opens occur in the United States and feature hard courts in spring.
Where Can I Buy Tickets?
You can purchase tickets at the BNP Paribas Open website in various packages.
