2024 Australian Open ATP Entry List - Djokovic, Alcaraz, Tsitsipas & more

| by Nurein Ahmed

The 112th edition of the Australian Open is just around the corner, signifying the short offseason in tennis and how the stars of men's tennis will soon hit the courts again.

The 2024 Australian Open is the most anticipated of the lot with major talking points headlining the showpiece event that will commence on Sunday, January 14, 2024, marking the first time that the year's first Grand Slam will have a weekend start.

As is the norm, the Australian Open is played on outdoor hard courts at Melbourne Park, with a 128-player singles field expected to converge there in the early weeks of January. The entry list for the tournament has been released.

Novak Djokovic secured top seeding at the Australian Open thanks to his record-breaking 7th ATP Finals in November and will pursue a record-extending 11th title. Djokovic is not guaranteed to remain No. 1 after the tournament in Melbourne, with Carlos Alcaraz expected to challenge him on that front.

Alcaraz, the second seed, missed last year's extravaganza due to injury, but he'll look to make up for his absence in 2024. Except for Casper Ruud, Rafael Nadal, and Felix Auger-Aliassime, the Top 10 has the same look from 12 months ago.

Former finalist Daniil Medvedev has a point to prove after a disappointing early exit in 2023, while Jannik Sinner will aim to go better than the fourth round he managed last season.

Nadal was supposed to make his Grand Slam return at this event and was one of seven players entering the Australian Open with a Protected Ranking, but he was forced to withdraw from the tournament due to an injury.

Denis Shapovalov and Marin Cilic are some of the players from the injured caravan who have recovered and entered the tournament, as Reilly Opelka joined the list of withdrawals.

The tournament has reserved eight main draw wild cards, which will be granted on merit, preferably to younger players. But home crowd favorite Nick Kyrgios will most likely benefit from this, but the Australian also announced that he wouldn't compete at the Australian Open in 2024.

Sixteen players will book their spots in the main draw through qualifying, which will have a strong presence, too, with newly-crowned Nex Gen Finals champion Hamad Medjedovic among those expected to lead the charge. You can see the full entry list below.
