Murray also receives wild card for Indian Wells

Andy Murray has also received a wildcard for Indian Wells, which is considered the fifth grand slam tournament. The 34-year-old Scot, who has regularly been helped with wild cards in recent years, never managed to win the tournament in California. In 2009 he was a finalist there.

Murray is currently number 84 in the world. Last month he participated with a wild card in the ABN AMRO World Tennis Tournament in Rotterdam.

The American Sofia Kenin in turn received a wild card for the women’s tournament. The American, who won the Australian Open in 2020, has dropped to place 89 in the world ranking.

Indian Wells starts on March 9 for the women and a day later for the men.
