2024 Chile Open Santiago ATP Entry List - Jarry, Cilic, Fils & more

| by Nurein Ahmed

The 2024 Chile Open will be the final stop of this year's South American Golden Swing, running from February 26th to Mach 3rd.

This ATP 250 tournament will be held in the country's capital city, Santiago, and is traditionally played on outdoor clay courts. Last year, Nicolas Jarry won this event. It was the second title of his career and the first in his country and city of birth.

The towering Chilean will return home seeking title number two. But he has a tall order to defend his crown for 12 months with a number of clay court experts featured in the recently released entry list. One of those is second seed Sebastian Baez, who has fared well in his last two trips to Santiago.

Baez was a runner-up in 2022 and was beaten in the semifinal by countryman Tomas Martin Etcheverry (who will be the third seed this year) in 2023. French teenager Arthur Fils has chosen to get a taste of the South American clay instead of staying in Europe and will play at this event.

Alejandro Tabilo had already bagged an ATP title this year when he shockingly won the ASB Classic in Auckland. He also briefly led this year's ATP race. He has the potential to make things work in his own country and is one of three confirmed Chileans in the draw, including Cristian Garin - the 2021 champion.

There will also be an appearance by former US Open champion Marin Cilic, who is making an uncustomary trip to Chile in late February. The big-serving Croat has been given a wild card. The tournament will announce two more wild cards in the days leading to the event.

The tournament has also reserved two special exemption slots while four players will join the field through the qualifying draw, which could feature the likes of Hugo Dellien, Benoit Paire, and Thiago Monteiro. Be sure to check the complete entry list of the 2024 Chile Open Santiago below.
