With Rublev and Sons headlining, Hong Kong entry list revealed
The ATP 250 Hong Kong (December 30 - January 5) will kick off the 2025 season at the same time as the Brisbane tournament.
Organized for the second year running, it boasts a rather interesting line-up for the start of the season, even if most players prefer the tournaments already being played in Australia.
Defending champion Andrey Rublev will be back to try and win the event again. He will be seeded n°1, ahead of Lorenzo Musetti and Karen Khachanov.
Arthur Fils, quarter-finalist in the first edition (beaten by Rublev), will be present as n°4 seed.
Borges, Nakashima, Griekspoor and Martinez complete the seeds.
Other registered players include Denis Shapovalov, who won the Belgrade title in his final week of competition this year.
