The Entry List has been confirmed ahead of the Qatar Open which will take place between February 19 - February 25 albeit it won't feature Rafael Nadal who has withdrawn since.
Nadal made an impressive return to action after almost a year out with a major hip problem with excellent displays at the Brisbane International until injury struck again. This forced the veteran to confirm that he was not ready to return to the rigours of a Grand Slam with the Australian Open being missed.
But after Laura Robson confirmed on the Eurosport coverage that he was set for an imminent return in Doha, it was only a matter of when he would return with the Spaniard in training but he has since suffered a setback.
As a result, Andrey Rublev leads the field, as well as Karen Khachanov, Alejandro Davidovich-Fokina, Jan-Lennard Struff and Andy Murray among others. Daniil Medvedev is the latest to withdraw with the defending champion out due to fatigue.
