Djokovic, Dimitrov, Rune, Kyrgios ... Brisbane entry list made official
Once again this year, the ATP 250 in Brisbane, along with the one in Hong Kong, will officially launch the ATP season.
Located in Australia, it will be an ideal opportunity to prepare for the first major of the season.
This year's title winner, Grigor Dimitrov, will be back to defend his title, but he won't be the only one. Novak Djokovic will also be making the trip, for the first time since 2009.
Other world-class players will be present, with Holger Rune, Frances Tiafoe, Sebastian Korda, Alejandro Tabilo, Alexei Popyrin and Jordan Thompson completing the list of seeded players.
There are also a number of players to keep a close eye on, including Jiri Lehecka, Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard, Matteo Berrettini, David Goffin, Gaël Monfils and, of course, the returning Nick Kyrgios.
A very strong field for an ATP 250!
