[1] Novak Djokovic
Novak Djokovic has now seen his contemporaries retire and step away from the sport, albeit tempting Andy Murray back as his coach for this season, as he continues to chase that elusive 25th Grand Slam.
Djokovic will hope to do better than his 2009 Brisbane debit, where he lost to Ernests Gulbis.
[2] Grigor Dimitrov
For so long Grigor Dimitrov was considered one of the ‘lost boys’ languishing behind the Big Three (or Four or Five if you add Andy Murray and Stan Wawrinka to that lost), but of late he has enjyed a bit of a resurgence.
Brisbane has always been a strong starting point to the season for Dimitrov – twice a winner (2017 and last year) and a finalist on his debit.
[3] Holger Rune
The Dane talks long about how he could be the best of his generation, but finds himself getting left far behind by contemporaries Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz. Last year’s finalist will need to start his Australian swing well.
[4] Frances Tiafoe
The crowd-pleasing American starts his season again in Brisbane having not fared too well in the past (2017 – qualification, 2018 – first round) and should make a better start this time around.
