contested an Indian Wells thriller in fourth-round action on Wednesday, though the Serbian ultimately fell on the wrong side of the result against reigning champion Jack Draper.<\/p>\n<p>Third seed and five-time Indian Wells champion <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/novak-djokovic\">Djokovic<\/a> had already been embroiled in two tough matches at the Masters 1000 event, battling from a set down against Kamil Majchrzak in round two, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/novak-djokovic-survives-huge-indian-wells-scare-as-star-overcomes-physical-concerns\">before fending off Aleksandar Kovacevic in round three<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In one of the best matches of the tournament so far, third seed Djokovic fought valiantly against 14th seed Draper, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/atp-tour\/indian-wells-open-novak-djokovic-highlights-crucial-moment-cost-him-jack-draper\">though it was the Brit who battled his way to a 4-6, 6-4, 7-6(5) triumph in Tennis Paradise<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Tennis News<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/jack-draper-struggling-with-confidence-novak-djokovic-indian-wells-open\">Jack Draper makes

href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/alex-eala-sends-message-debut-indian-wells-open-campaign\">Alex Eala sends 14-word social media message after debut Indian Wells Open campaign<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Defeat for Djokovic officially brings his Indian Wells campaign to a close for 2026, having already exited the doubles alongside <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/stefanos-tsitsipas\">Stefanos Tsitsipas<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The Serbian and Tsitsipas stunned third seeds and reigning champions Marcelo Arevalo and Mate Pavic in the first round, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/novak-djokovic-mocked-handshake-arthur-rinderknech-indian-wells-doubles\">though they were then beaten by Arthur Rinderknech and Valentin Vacherot<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>With the dust settling on his efforts, we look at the prize money and ranking points won by Djokovic at this tournament.<\/p>\n<h2>What ranking points did Djokovic earn?<\/h2>\n<p>Djokovic\u2019s fourth-round exit will have come as a disappointment for the 38-year-old, though it still betters his result from 2025.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/atp-tour\/novak-djokovic-crashes-out-indian-wells-retirement-future\">The Serbian was stunned by Botic van de Zandschulp in the second round twelve months ago<\/a>, and claimed just 10 ranking points for losing in his opening match.<\/p>\n<p>After beating Majchrzak in round two and Kovacevic in round three before his loss to Draper, Djokovic will take home 100 ranking points for his fourth-round display.<\/p>\n<p>That is an improvement of 90 points on his haul from 2025, and will see him rise from 5,280 points to 5,370 points when the ATP Rankings update next Monday.<\/p>\n<p>Unless current world No 4 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/alexander-zverev\">Alexander Zverev<\/a> lifts the title in Tennis Paradise, Djokovic will remain as the world No 3 next Monday.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, for his doubles campaign, the 38-year-old and partner Tsitsipas will take home 90 ranking points for reaching the second round.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, he will re-enter the doubles rankings next Monday.<\/p>\n<p>The winners of both the men\u2019s singles and men\u2019s doubles rankings will take home 1,000 ranking points this weekend.<\/p>\n<h2>What prize money did Djokovic earn?<\/h2>\n<p>Significant prize money is on offer in Indian Wells this year, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-features\/atp-indian-wells-entry-list-ranking-points-prize-money-key-dates-2026\">with the men\u2019s and women\u2019s singles champions both set to take home $1,151,380 from Tennis Paradise<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>By entering the draw and receiving a bye into the second round, Djokovic ensured at least $36,110 in winnings from the singles event.<\/p>\n<p>He secured $61,865 in winnings by reaching the third round, and will ultimately end his singles campaign with $105,720 for his fourth-round defeat.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, he and Tsitsipas also earn $35,700 for reaching the second round of the men\u2019s doubles event.<\/p>\n<p>Doubles prize money at the tournament is split per team, meaning Djokovic will receive $17,850 for his doubles campaign.<\/p>\n<p>Combined across singles and doubles, the 38-year-old will take home $123,570 for his Indian Wells exploits.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-features\/atp-miami-open-entry-list-2026\">The Serbian is currently set to return to action at the Miami Open<\/a>, which starts next
