Former Top 5 players Stan Wawrinka and Kei Nishikori will be in action at the same ATP Challenger Tour event this week.
Wawrinka, a three-time major champion, and Nishikori, a former No. 4 in the PIF ATP Rankings, will compete in the Slovak Open 2024. The ATP Challenger 125 tournament is being held in Bratislava.
Wawrinka, who also played ATP Challenger Tour events in Aix-en-Provence and Bordeaux earlier in the season, will begin his tournament against Maximilian Marterer.
Nishikori, who reached the quarter-finals in Como and Genoa two months ago, will play third-seeded Marton Fucsovics in the first round.
Other players to watch include #NextGenATP star Joao Fonseca and fourth seed Jacob Fearnley, who owns a 23-1 ATP Challenger Tour record this season.
There’s plenty of Challenger action around the world this week, with events in Seoul, Sydney, Charlottesville, Guayaquil and Brazzaville, Congo. The country makes its debut on the ATP Challenger Tour this week, becoming the 94th country/venue (and number 10 in Africa) to host the tournament in Challenger history.
Hyeon Chung, winner of the 2017 Next Gen ATP Finals presented by PIF, is playing his first ATP Challenger Tour event of 2024 at the SISLEY Seoul Open.
You can watch all the action on Challenger TV, with live streaming and replays of the game.
