Aryna Sabalenka returns to the court for the first time since her US Open final defeat, and this will be her first appearance as the official women's World No.1.

She will seek to put her Grand Slam disappointment behind her with a big display here, while the deposed Iga Świątek will relish the role of hunter as she aims to claw her way back to the top of the tree.

The majority of players in the ATP top 10 will feature - including Carlos Alcaraz, as he seeks to hunt down the World No.1 spot once again.

Andy Murray has also been welcomed into the tournament to replace Roberto Bautista Agut, and he will be determined to make the most of his trip to Asia.
