MORE TENNIS THAN YOU'LL EVER NEED

Olympics

You wouldn’t doubt there will be some late withdrawals.

But for now, the list of participants in the Olympic tennis event is complete, as announced by the ITF on Thursday – just 23 days before the event is set to begin.

There are notables missing: most of the top-ranked Americans, Rafael Nadal, and Roberto Bautista Agut, Simona Halep, Denis Shapovalov and Milos Raonic, Cameron Norrie and many more.

Here they are, in alphabetical order. In all, 45 countries are represented.

(ITF) means a regional or other type of selection made by the ITF, of players who might not otherwise have qualified.
