Also stylised as the BNP Paribas Nordic Open, the Stockholm Open will see Holger Rune as top seed who has struggled with form since Wimbledon mainly due to injury and illness. He will likely start against Miomir Kecmanovic in Stockholm as defending champion with the Dane winning it en route to a breakout end to the season.

The other end of that is Adrian Mannarino who is having the best spell of his career in his late 30's winning both Newport and Astana and is second seed this next week and likely favourite for the title.

Joining them include Tallon Griekspoor, Gael Monfils and Stan Wawrinka as well as Alejandro Davidovich Fokina and Christopher Eubanks. All have shown form throughout the season so it will likely be a fairly evenly matched field.
