An ATP 250 event, it will feature a star-studded list of players who will be hoping to play some events prior to the first Grand Slam of the year in Melbourne. Although defending champion Gael Monfils will not be participating this year due to his withdrawal from the Australian Open, several other entertaining superstars will be present, making this field even stronger than last year's.
Former World No.1 Novak Djokovic headlines the entry list, and the Serbian will be joined by Russians Daniil Medvedev, Andrey Rublev and last year's finalist Karen Khachanov. Additionally, three-time Grand slam champion Andy Murray is scheduled to compete, as are British compatriots Jack draper and Kyle Edmund, who is hoping to begin his comeback on the ATP circuit following his battle with injuries.
Canadian Felix Auger-Aliassime will spearhead the youth movement at the event, alongside Holger Rune, Jannik Sinner and Sebastian Korda. Below is the full list of entrants.
