Nominees have been revealed today for the four player-voted categories and Coach of the Year in the 2024 ATP Awards.

Former World No. 3 Dominic Thiem, who retired from professional tennis last month in Vienna, is up against Top 10 stars Carlos Alcaraz, Grigor Dimitrov and Casper Ruud for the Stefan Edberg Sportsmanship Award. Alcaraz won this peer-voted honour in 2023 and Ruud the year before that.

Jack Draper and Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard are among the nominees for Most Improved Player of the Year, while their coaches Emmanuel Planque and James Trotman have also picked up ATP Awards nods. Joining Planque and Trotman in the Coach of the Year category are Xavier Malisse (Alexei Popyrin), Michael Russell (Taylor Fritz) and Brad Stine (Tommy Paul).

Nineteen-year-olds Jakub Mensik and Juncheng Shang are the two nominees for Newcomer of the Year, as #NextGenATP players who broke into the Top 100 for the first time this season. Meanwhile, a trio of former Top 10 players – Matteo Berrettini, Marin Cilic and Kei Nishikori – will vie for Comeback Player of the Year.

Nominees for Comeback Player of the Year, Most Improved Player of the Year and the Stefan Edberg Sportsmanship Award are determined by an International Tennis Writers’ Association (ITWA) vote. Coach of the Year nominees are selected through first-round voting by ATP coaches.

ATP Awards winners, including Fans’ Favourite, will be revealed during Awards week, starting 9 December. Fans can vote for their favourite singles player and doubles team through Wednesday, 27 November.
