Schwartzman, Monfils headline Sofia Open field


World number eight Diego Schwartzman is the highest-ranked player set to play at the Sofia Open in November.

 

The tournament in Bulgaria is set to start on the 9th November and will be the final tournament before the ATP Finals in London, which is still set to be held in London despite the disruption to the tour caused by COVID-19.

Schwartzman will be joined by the likes of Gael Monfils who is currently set to be the second seed at the tournament, barring any late wildcards for top-ten players.

2016 champion Roberto Bautista Agut will look to regain his titles, with former Grand Slam finalists Kevin Anderson, Milos Raonic and Kei Nishikori also all entered into the draw.

Young Canadians Felix Auger-Aliassime and Denis Shapovalov are also entered, as is recent US Open semi-finalist Pablo Carreno Busta and quarter-finalist Borna Coric.

Fabio Fognini and Casper Ruud are amongst the other names in the draw, with the likes of Marin Cilic and Kyle Edmund currently set to enter the qualifying draw for the tournament.
