The 2025 tennis season has begun, with several big names already in the fray. Sebastian Korda, however, is not one of them as he withdrew from his first event of the season. The American was set to participate in the Brisbane International but withdrew before opening his campaign.

Frances Tiafoe, meanwhile, began the season well with a victory over Adam Walton in Brisbane. He is set to take on Giovanni Mpetshi-Perricard in the next round following the Frenchman's win over Nick Kyrgios.

Alexander Zverev began his season at the United Cup in Perth, defeating Brazil's Thiago Monteiro 6-4, 6-4 and China's Zhang Zhizhen 2-6, 6-0, 6-2 in singles. However, Zverev could not play for Germany in the quarterfinals against Kazakhstan due to a biceps strain. Germany, the defending champions, were ousted by the Kazakhs.
