World No. 1 Jannik Sinner and 24‑time Grand Slam champion Novak Djokovic have been announced as the marquee names in the 96‑player draw for the National Bank Open. The ATP 1000 event, staged in Montreal, Quebec, returns this year after a previous edition that saw a number of top competitors pull out.
The tournament’s entry list now features 96 men, with Sinner and Djokovic positioned as the leading attractions. Sinner, who holds the top spot in the ATP rankings, and Djokovic, whose record includes 24 major titles, are expected to draw significant attention from fans and media alike.
Organisers highlighted the strength of the field as a sign of the event’s revival following last year’s withdrawals. The National Bank Open, a staple on the ATP Tour’s Masters 1000 calendar, offers players the chance to compete for valuable ranking points and prestige on the hard‑court surface that precedes the North American swing of the season.
Montreal’s venue will host the competition under the usual format for a Masters 1000 tournament, with matches scheduled over the coming weeks. While the exact daily schedule has not been released, the presence of the world’s top-ranked player and a legend with a record number of Grand Slam victories underscores the tournament’s importance within the professional circuit.
Fans in Quebec can anticipate high‑quality tennis as Sinner and Djokovic navigate a field that includes a full complement of 96 competitors. The event also serves as a key preparation platform for upcoming major tournaments, allowing the headline players to fine‑tune their games against a deep roster of opponents.
With the National Bank Open back on its regular footing, the spotlight will be firmly on Sinner’s quest to defend his ranking and Djokovic’s attempt to add another Masters 1000 title to his extensive résumé.
