Players faced the “strongest and strictest” quarantine rules when they arrived in Melbourne for the first Slam of the year – and could face deportation if they break the rules. With the Murray River Open set to get underway on February 1, Tennis Australia announced a full blockbuster 'summer of tennis' calendar to kick off 2021. Murray River is planned as a warm-up event. "During our many months of planning for the Australian Open it’s been a priority to provide as many competition opportunities for the playing group as possible,” Australian Open Tournament Director Craig Tiley said.

“It’s been an incredibly difficult year for everyone and the players have had limited opportunity to compete throughout 2020. These additional events will be vital to their Australian Open preparation.”Grand Slam champions, #NextGenATP stars and home favourites lead the field at the Murray River Open, one of two ATP 250s being held in Melbourne from 1-7 February alongside the ATP Cup (2-6 February).

Top seed Stan Wawrinka, the No. 18 player in the FedEx ATP Rankings, is the highest-ranked player in a draw that also features 2017 Nitto ATP Finals champion Grigor Dimitrov and US Open champion Marin Cilic. The Swiss, who went 15-8 in 2020, starts the season in search of his first ATP Tour trophy since 2017 Geneva. The Australian Open lead-in week has been revamped to help give the 72 players in the 14-day quarantine lockdown the best possible preparation and training opportunities.

Following extensive consultation between the players and the Tours, Tennis Australia has designed a new schedule, taking into account the limited time many players have had to prepare. There will now be three WTA 500 events - the two originally planned from Sunday 31 January to Saturday 6 February, with slightly reduced draw sizes. A third event, for those players who’ve been unable to train, will commence on Wednesday 3 and finish on Sunday 7 February.
