How do the Australian Open seedings work?

Just like the other three Grand Slams, the Australian Open uses the current ATP men’s rankings to determine the men’s seed order – which is 32 players.
Organisers usually take the ATP rankings from the previous Monday before the tournament begins.
French Open and US Open have had the same system for seedings in recent times, but Wimbledon only recently moved over to it in 2021.
Until the 2021 tournament, Wimbledon organisers had used a computer-based system favouring grass court results to decide the seedings, giving players who had gone far at Wimbledon the previous year an advantage.
Tennis rankings Australian Open 2024
With no men’s Australian Open withdrawals from the top 32 players, the seedings match the current rankings.
Novak Djokovic is number one seed, while last year’s top dog Rafael Nadal is absent through injury.
Australia’s Alex de Minaur competed as a top 10 seed for the first time.
