All proceeds benefit local Coachella Valley non-profits.

Rafael Nadal vs Karen Khachanov: In the second match of the day on Stadium 1, it’s a highly-anticipated clash between a tennis icon and a perennial top-15 player looking for his first major breakthrough. The 17-time Grand Slam champion Spaniard is looking for his fourth career title in the desert, with Russia’s Khachanov standing in the way of him getting one step closer to the gold.

5.

Angelique Kerber vs Belinda Bencic: In the session’s nightcap, three-time Grand Slam champion Angelique Kerber will take the court against Swiss upstart Belinda Bencic.

With a spot in the finals on the line, Friday’s matchup is sure to be a can’t-miss event.
