Britain’s Emma Raducanu will play world number three Coco Gauff in the second round at Indian Wells – if she can beat Japan’s Moyuka Uchijima in the first round.
Raducanu is scheduled to play world number 52 Uchijima on the tournament’s opening day on Wednesday.
It will be the British number two’s first tournament since a stalking ordeal at the Dubai Tennis Championships last week.
The former US Open champion was shaken after a man “exhibited fixated behaviour” during her second-round match.
The man was later detained and given a restraining order, Dubai Police said.
Raducanu was deliberating whether to travel to the United States for the hard-court event following the incident, but has decided to compete.
