The first ATP tournament of the year in the Middle East has taken a bit of a knock, with defending champion Daniil Medvedev and Rafael Nadal withdrawing from the event in Doha.

I would have loved to play in Doha, where the tournament team, as well as the amazing Qatar fans have always supported me greatly. Unfortunately I am not ready to compete and I won’t be able to come to Doha where I really wanted to be and play again after that unforgettable win… pic.twitter.com/U4GUvIITcr

Despite the defending champion not returning to Doha in 2024, last year’s runner-up and two-time champion Andy Murray will be looking to regain form after a rough spell of four consecutive defeats.
