Elena Vesnina defeated Svetlana Kuznetsova in the final, 6–7^(6–8), 7–5, 6–4 to win the women's singles tennis title at the 2017 Indian Wells Masters. It was Vesnina's first WTA 1000 singles title and the last singles title of her career. This was the second all-Russian final in tournament history, following the 2006 edition.^[1]

Victoria Azarenka was the reigning champion, but did not participate this year as she was on maternity leave.

Due to the pre-tournament withdrawal of Serena Williams (also due to maternity leave), Angelique Kerber regained the world No. 1 ranking at the end of the tournament.

All seeds receive a bye into the second round.
