Since 1996, the Tel Aviv Open has been missing from the ATP Tour. However, it is back this year with a stellar lineup that will compete from September 26 to October 2.
The Tel Aviv Open is a highly fascinating competition historically. Aaron Krickstein won this tournament in 1983 at the age of 16 and 2 months, setting the ATP record for the youngest winner of an ATP event. Jimmy Connors, an eight-time Grand Slam champion, won his final singles title there. This year, the tournament's entry list is headed by the 21-time Grand Slam champion.
Top prize at the 2022 Tel Aviv Open that Novak Djokovic but also others will be eyeing is 250 points and $144,415 and so the tournament offers quite solid prize money for an ATP 250 event.
The defeated finalist will get 150 points and also $84,245 while two players that exit the tournament in semifinals will be awarded 90 points and $49,535. For getting into the second round, players will get 20 points and $16,660.
