Botic van de Zandschulp, a 29-year-old player from the Netherlands, currently holds the 85th spot in the world rankings. Throughout 2022, he managed to achieve a new career-high ranking 14 times and reached his peak at No. 22 in August. He ended the season as the No. 1 Dutchman for the second consecutive year.

In terms of his overall performance in events, he has a 4-4 record, reaching the third round in both 2022 and 2025.

Notably, at the 2021 US Open, Van de Zandschulp became the third men’s qualifier in the Open Era to reach the quarterfinals. He also became the first Dutchman since 2004 to make it to the quarterfinals of a Grand Slam. Additionally, he was the only player to take a set off the eventual champion, Medvedev, in that tournament.

In 2024, Van de Zandschulp achieved significant victories, defeating the No. 3 ranked Alcaraz in the second round of the US Open, marking the biggest win of his career. He also defeated Nadal in the Davis Cup Finals, which resulted in the end of Nadal’s career. Van de Zandschulp’s outstanding performance helped the Netherlands advance to their first-ever Davis Cup final since 1900.

In Munich, he caused upsets by defeating the No. 7 Ruud en route to his first ATP Tour final in 2022. He continued his success by defeating the No. 10 Fritz and reaching his second final in 2023. Unfortunately, he lost both finals, squandering four championship points in the latter against Rune.

In 2021, Van de Zandschulp performed exceptionally well in Grand Slam qualifying matches, winning 11 out of 12 matches. He successfully qualified for the Australian Open, Roland Garros, and the US Open. In Wimbledon, he entered as a Lucky Loser and was ultimately defeated by Trungelliti in the third round of qualifying.

Currently, Van de Zandschulp aims to reach the Round of 16 in the ATP Masters 1000 tournament in Indian Wells for the third time. He previously achieved this feat in Miami and Paris in 2023. If successful, he will join Griekspoor in the Round of 16, marking the first time since 1999 that multiple Dutch men have reached this stage in Indian Wells. In the past, lucky losers such as Luca Nardi in 2024 have made impressive runs in the Round of 16.

On the other hand, Francisco Cerundolo, a 26-year-old player from Argentina, holds the 26th position in the world rankings. He broke into the Top 100 in 2022 and achieved a new career-high ranking 11 times throughout the year. In June 2023, he reached his peak at No. 19, following his first-ever Grand Slam fourth round appearance at Roland Garros, where he defeated the No. 8 ranked Fritz in the third round.

Cerundolo successfully entered the Top 25 in July 2022 after defeating the No. 5 Ruud en route to winning his first ATP Tour title in Bastad. He continued his strong performance by defeating the No. 8 Rublev and reaching the semifinals in Hamburg. He won his second title at the 2023 Eastbourne tournament, becoming the first Argentine ATP Tour champion on grass since Frana in 1995.

In 2022, at the Miami tournament, Cerundolo went on a remarkable run as the World No. 103, becoming the lowest-ranked semi-finalist in the event’s 37-year history. He also became the first player to reach the semifinals in their ATP Masters 1000 main draw debut since Janowicz in 2012 Paris.

Cerundolo comes from a tennis family. His father, Alejandro, was also a professional tennis player. His younger brother, Juan Manuel, won the Cordoba title in 2021. Additionally, his sister, Constanza, played for the Argentine field hockey team, which won a gold medal at the 2018 Youth Olympics.

Currently, Cerundolo aims to become the first active Argentine male player to reach the fourth round of the Indian Wells tournament since Schwartzman in 2021. He also seeks his third ATP Masters 1000 fourth round appearance on US soil, following his achievements in Miami in 2022 (semifinals) and 2023 (quarterfinals). In previous years at Indian Wells, he was eliminated in the third round by Auger-Aliassime in 2023 and by Shelton in the most recent edition.
