Jannik Sinner enters the competition among the favourites in the men's game, but he faces stern opposition from the likes of young pretender Carlos Alcaraz and wily veteran Novak Djokovic, who isn't finished yet.
Aryna Sabalenka, having knocked Iga Swiatek off the top spot, will be in no mood to relinquish her control of the women's game. Anything less than defending her crown could open the door for challengers such as Coco Gauff to pounce.
British fans have plenty to be excited about, with Jack Draper and Katie Boulter among the seeded players and both sitting in their highest ever positions in the ATP and WTA Rankings respectively.
