Paris 2024 Olympic Games Men's Seeds Confirmed as Novak Djokovic leads Carlos Alcaraz

The Men's Singles seeds have been confirmed for the 2024 Paris Olympic Games which will begin on June 27 with the draw this Thursday ahead of the action starting over the weekend led by Novak Djokovic.

Jannik Sinner has since withdrawn from the tournament since time of writing with tonsilitis boosting the bid of Djokovic who will finally look to seal the elusive gold medal that has eluded him all this time. It will likely be a final Olympic Games appearance for Djokovic with the 37-year-old next having the chance likely at the 2028 Olympic Games which by his own admission he likely won't be playing at. The favourite for the gold though is World No.3, Carlos Alcaraz.
