Adelaide International 1 2023: Men's draw, schedule, players, prize money breakdown and more

The third edition of the ATP Adelaide International 1 will start on January 1. While the tournament is in the ATP 250 category, a number of big names will be competing as they look to get some match practice ahead of the Australian Open.

Novak Djokovic is the biggest name competing in Adelaide and is a heavy favorite to win. However, the likes of Daniil Medvedev, Felix Auger-Aliassime and Andrey Rublev are capable of giving the Serb a run for his money. Holger Rune, Jannik Sinner and Denis Shapovalov are also among those to look out for.

With an exciting week of tennis action ahead of us, let's take a look at all the information regarding the Adelaide International 1.
