Events

Roger Federer was the defending champion from when the tournament was last held in 2019, but chose not to participate this year.^[1]

As Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal also chose not to participate, this will be the first Masters 1000 tournament without at least one of the Big Three competing since the 2004 Paris Masters.^[2] The further withdrawals of Andy Murray, Dominic Thiem and Stan Wawrinka ensured this would be the first Masters 1000 since the tournament category was created in 1990 to feature only one active Grand Slam Champion in the draw (Marin Čilić).^{[citation needed]}
