Djokovic won last year's title there; this year's tournament starts next week and serves as a hard-court tuneup ahead of the U.S. Open. The year's last Grand Slam tournament begins in New York on Aug. 26. The draw is Aug. 22. Djokovic is the defending champion at the U.S. Open. He won his 24th career major championship there in 2023.
