Federer, Medvedev, Zverev and Rublev feature on strong ATP Halle entry list


Roger Federer headlines a strong list of players who will feature at the 2021 Noventi Open in Halle, according to reports.

The 39-year-old is joined on the entry list for the ATP 500 event by three fellow top 10 players: Daniil Medvedev, Alexander Zverev and Andrey Rublev.

The Swiss is a 10-time Halle champion, and will be playing at the tournament for an 18th time.

The list, published by DartsRankings.com, features another five players placed between 11 and 20 in the ATP rankings: Roberto Bautista Agut, Pablo Carreno Busta, David Goffin, Hubert Hurkacz and Felix Auger-Aliassime.

Top 30 players Casper Ruud, Cristian Garin and Karen Khachanov, as well as world No. 48 Kei Nishikori, are also set to play. World No. 65 Sebastian Korda is the lowest ranked direct entrant.

The pre-Wimbledon grass court event will run from June 14 to June 20 – in the week after the French Open concludes.

Federer was beaten in the second round of this week’s Geneva Open in his first match since the Qatar Open in March.
