Top players practice and chat with the media, qualifying completes at Indian Wells

Tuesday at the BNP Paribas Open saw twelve players advance to the main draw through qualifying, while top players were practicing and talking to the media.

Emma Raducanu is making her Indian Wells debut after receiving a main-draw
wildcard. The Briton stunned the tennis world in US Open last month by becoming the first qualifier in the Open Era to win a Grand Slam singles title. This will be her first tournament since then and just the fifth tour-level event of her career.

The 18-year-old Raducanu is currently without a permanent coach, as she ended the partnership with Andrew Richardson who led her to her maiden major title.
