Frances Tiafoe was supposed to play at the Mubadala World Tennis Championship that starts tomorrow but he got injured.
Borna Coric, who had a spectacular season finale and aims to build on it in 2023, will take the American's spot. This competition will provide him a wonderful opportunity to test his early-season level. Many talented athletes, like Ruud, Tsitsipas, Rublev, and Norrie will be there as well.
"I'm excited to be making my Mubadala World Tennis Championship debut in Abu Dhabi. I know there are a lot of Croatian sports fans in the region so it will be great to play in front of them. Playing in the Championship, with such a strong line-up, is the perfect start to my 2023 season," said Coric said in a statement.
Event CEO John Lickrish added:
“Adding Coric to the MWTC roster is extremely exciting. He has just completed a fantastic season and is showing he deserves to be playing among the very best once more. In Abu Dhabi, he will certainly be in a strong field and I'm very much looking forward to watching him take on Rublev on the opening day.”
