Mackenzie McDonald will make his 3rd main-draw appearance in his 5th participation at the Indian Wells. McDonald saw a dip in form after he made it to the finals of the ATP-500 2021 Washington Open where he lost to Sinner in the finals. Since then he has failed to go past the 2nd round. He returns on the tour for the first time since his 5-setter 2nd round defeat to Kei Nishikori at the 2021 US Open.
