The Indian Wells Masters main draw has arrived with WTA stars in action as the first round starts on Wednesday.

Seeded stars are kept out of the first round but that doesn’t mean there’s a lack of quality talent in the Round of 128.

Seasoned veteran Kaia Kanepi – who reached the quarter-finals of the Australian Open – is in action here, as well as Sofia Kenin, who has plunged down the WTA rankings.

The 23-year-old won the 2020 Australian Open and was a defeated finalist in the French Open that year. She peaked at No.4 in the world but has failed to shine since then and has dropped to No.130.

British fans will be keen to see Heather Watson, Harriet Dart and Kate Boulter in action as they enter the main draw after qualifying for the tournament.

RadioTimes.com brings you the Indian Wells Masters 2022 order of play for today.
