College Dual Matches Part of the ATP & WTA Event in Indian Wells

As part of the BNP Paribas Open, 8 men's teams (NCAA D-I) convene on the final weekend of the event to play the 'Collegiate Challenge'. Ticket holders will be able to see some of the nation's best ranked tennis players including top 10 players #4 Julian Lenz, #7 Axel Alvarez Llamas, and #8 Yannick Hanfmann.
