The 2024 Eastbourne International will run from June 24th to 29th, and the entry list has been revealed.
It is a 250-level event that was ingrained into the ATP calendar for the first time in 2009. American men account for the most winners, with three, and Taylor Fritz is one of only two players to win the title on two occasions.
Last year, Tommy Paul almost joined the winner's circle but lost the final in three sets to Argentina's Francisco Cerundolo. The trio of Fritz, Paul, and Cerudnolo will all feature in a fantastic lineup for the 2024 edition.
Quite a handful of South American representatives have confirmed their participation, including Sebastian Baez, Tomas Martin Etcheverry, and Mariano Navone.
This is usually a productive period for Alexander Bublik. The 26-year-old Kazakhstani will look to add a second title on the lawns, having lost in the quarterfinal stage in each of his last two trips to Eastbourne.
Czech rising star Jiri Lehecka sadly missed the French Open because of injury, but he hopes to return to full fitness before the grass-court season. He has signed up to get some much-needed court time before Wimbledon.
The most exciting youngsters to watch include Arthur Fils and Jack Draper, who are both in the world's Top 40. British lefty Draper has not played on grass since 2022 Wimbledon, as injuries limited his presence on the ATP Tour in the last 12 months.
Japan's Kei Nishikori has been through his own injury struggles in the last few years and is expected to play on the surface for the first time in three years. He'll use a protected ranking to enter the main draw in Eastbourne.
Andy Murray could bolster the British presence in the main draw. He appears on the alternates list and might require a wild card in the days before the tournament commences. The same applies to Matteo Berrettini. Be sure to check the entry list for the 2024 Eastbourne International below.
