Sunday tonight is the two finals' night at Indian Wells as both women single and men single finals are being played one after the other.
In the first final, world no.3 Russian Maria Sharapova takes on 10th ranked Caroline Wozniacki from Denmark.
In the men's singles event, world no. 7 Argentinian Juan Martin del Potro who knocked out top-ranked Novak Djokovic 4-6, 6-4, 6-4 in the semifinals of the BNP Paribas Open on Saturday, plays the Indian Wells final against world no.5 Spaniard Rafael Nadal Sunday tonight.
Thus Djokovic missed the chance to meet Rafa in the final as was expected after Nadal ousted Federer. The shock defeat brought Djokovic's 22-match winning run to an end. It was Djokovic's first defeat on tour since he lost to Sam Querrey at the Paris Masters in October.
Like Potro, Nadal also stunned the defending champion and world no.2 Roger Federer in the quarters and overtook the 17 times Grand Slam winners to join the race to the finals.
Del Potro who also knocked out Britain's Andy Murray 6-7(5) 6-3 6-1 in the quarters makes the final tonight very interesting to watch as his opponent Nadal too badly needs to win a major tennis event since Wimbledon last year.
The match today is scheduled for Sunday, 17 March at 21:00 GMT
