Daniil Medvedev brought an end to world number one Carlos Alcaraz's perfect start to 2026 to reach the final at Indian Wells.

Alcaraz began the year by winning the Australian Open and was on a 16-match winning streak until running into Medvedev.

The Russian made a quick start, taking the opening set in 35 minutes, en route to a 6-3 7-6 (7-3) victory in California.

The 30-year-old, who has finished runner-up at the California event on two occasions, will face Jannik Sinner after the world number two caught the eye with a 6-2 6-4 win over Alexander Zverev earlier in the day.
