The 2021 ATP World Tour season is going to start with two hard-court tournaments.
With a brand new calendar, the tennis season is set to begin on the 5th of January, when the Delray Beach Open (Florida, USA) and the Antalya Open (Turkey) kick off. The first main draw matches are scheduled to happen on the 7th of January, as the qualifying tournaments will be played in the first two days.
Milos Raonic, Cristian Garin and John Isner will be the first three seeds in the main draw of the Delray Beach Open. Andy Murray was handed a Wild-Card but he later decided to skip the tournament. Former champions Sam Querrey, Reilly Opelka, Frances Tiafoe and Ivo Karlovic are committed to play as well.
The Antalya Open is a new ATP 250 tournament with a single-year license. Matteo Berrettini, David Goffin, Fabio Fognini and Alex De Minaur are among the players who have signed in the entry list. Borna Coric, Jannik Sinner and Benoit Paire have withdrawn from the event.
Both tournaments’ finals will be played on the 13th of January. During the week, the Australian Open qualifying tournament is also scheduled to take place in Doha (Qatar).
