#NextGenATP star Sinner also features in ATP 250 field

David Goffin and Karen Khachanov will lead an impressive field at the Murray River Open (Melbourne 1), which will be played at Melbourne Park from 31 January to 6 February due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

World No. 16 Goffin and World No. 20 Khachanov will both attempt to capture their fifth ATP Tour singles crowns in Melbourne and end personal title droughts. Goffin won his fourth tour-level trophy at the 2017 Rakuten Japan Open Tennis Championships, while Khachanov earned his last title at the 2018 Rolex Paris Masters.

Alongside the Top 20 stars, Cristian Garin and John Isner will also attempt to start the year with a strong week in Melbourne. The ATP 250, which will be held alongside the ATP Cup and the Great Ocean Road Open (Melbourne 2), made its debut on the ATP Tour calendar in 2020.

The tournament will welcome eight of the Top 40 players in the FedEx ATP Rankings, including #NextGenATP Italian Jannik Sinner. The 19-year-old, who is the youngest member of the Top 100, ended his final event of the 2020 ATP Tour season with his maiden tour-level crown at the Sofia Open.

Outside of the Top 40, the Adelaide field is packed with experience. Former Top 5 star Kevin Anderson, two-time Australian Open quarter-finalist Tennys Sandgren, 2020 Comeback Player of the Year Vasek Pospisil and 10-time ATP Tour titlist Sam Querrey will all compete for the trophy in Melbourne.

All about the ATP 250 tennis tournament in Melbourne, Australia
Top 20 players Karen Khachanov and David Goffin headline the action at the Murray River Open, one of two ATP 250s being held in Melbourne from 1-7 February alongside the ATP Cup (2-6 February). The tournament made its debut on the calendar last year in Adelaide, but due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the 2021 edition will be held at the home of the Australian Open.

World No. 14 Goffin and World No. 20 Khachanov are both starting the season in search of their fifth ATP title. They are also hoping to end trophy droughts in the process, with the Belgian last claiming silverware in 2017 and the Russian triumphing at the Rolex Paris Masters in 2018.


Also in action, #NextGenATP Italian Jannik Sinner hopes to pick up where he left off after finishing the 2020 season with his first Tour-level title in Sofia. Delray Beach champion Hubert Hurkacz, No. 29 in the FedEx ATP Rankings, is back in action while last year's Australian Open quarter-finalist Tennys Sandgren returns to Melbourne alongside fellow Americans Reilly Opelka and Sam Querrey.
