Russian ace Andreeva is currently the form player on the WTA Tour and now has the chance to win her second straight tournament. The 17-year-old became the youngest winner of a WTA 1000 tournament in Dubai last month and reached the final with a stunning 7-6, 1-6, 6-3 win over second seed Iga Swiatek in the last four.

Andreeva will now play top seed Sabelanka in the final after the Belarusian avenged her Australian Open final defeat by Madison Keys with a brutal 6-0, 6-1 victory. The two have met on five occasions, with Sabalenka boasting a 4-1 record against the teenager.

In the men’s final, Draper will play in the biggest match of his career after stunning defending champion Carlos Alcaraz in the semi-finals. The 23-year-old secured a 6-1, 0-6, 6-4 win over the Spaniard and will now be inside the world’s top 10 for the first time.

Standing in the Brit’s way is Rune who reached the fourth Masters final of his career with a comfortable 7-5, 6-4 victory over Russian fifth seed Daniil Medvedev. The Dane has only played Draper once before, securing a straight set victory last year in Cincinnati.

Sky Sports will be showing all the action from Indian Wells in the UK, including the men’s and women’s finals, so if you already have a Sky subscription that doesn't include Sports, you'll need to pay £18/month to add those channels. The game will be shown on Sky Sports Tennis.

Whichever package you go for, you'll also gain access to coverage in 4K and HDR, so long as you also have an HDR-ready Sky Q box and HLG-compatible TV.

Sky Glass is another option. This gives you Sky TV within a 4K TV that has a built-in Dolby Atmos soundbar, and without the need for a dish. Prices start at £13/month for the TV, plus a sky sub on top of that.

If you don't want to shell out for a full Sky subscription, you could also consider its Now Sports streaming service. This gives you 24-hour access for £11.99 or month-long access for £34.99.

All sounds great, right? But if you're not in the UK, you can still follow the 2025 Indian Wells tournament live stream by using one of the best VPN services, such as NordVPN.
