Indian Wells, CA., August 9, 2021 – The BNP PARIBAS OPEN, a combined mandatory ATP Masters 1000 and WTA 1000 event, announced the expansion of its men’s event from one week to two weeks.
While the first-ever fall edition of the BNP Paribas Open was slated to feature a women’s event with 96-player singles draw and 32-team doubles draw, the Tournament Director Tommy Haas announced today that the men’s event has now been expanded from one to two weeks to match the women’s field size.
The tournament is slated to be held October 4 – 17, 2021 at the Indian Wells Tennis Gardens.
Located 15 miles Southeast of Palm Springs in the resort community of Indian Wells, CA.

The state-of-the-art facility is a year-round tennis club that is open to the public, and also plays host to incredible live music performances and diverse sporting events – including the world’s largest combined men’s and women’s tennis tournament – the BNP Paribas Open.
