Canadian tennis star Felix Auger-Aliassime has become the latest big name to sign on for January's ASB Classic.
The world No.15 joins Coco Gauff and Caroline Wozniacki to make his debut at New Zealand's annual tennis showpiece at Auckland.
The 23-year-old peaked at No.6 in the world last year on the back of four ATP titles, three of which he won consecutively.
He recorded notable victories over Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic, each on two occasions, and Rafael Nadal.
"Last year was a great year for me and I reached some important milestones in my titles, the Nitto ATP Finals and Davis Cup - really a full year to celebrate," said Auger-Aliassime.
"I have heard a lot of good things about Auckland and New Zealand in general, like the beauty of the landscape and the country, and how nice the people are as well.
"I am looking forward to seeing that, and hopefully, I can play well and win some matches in front of the fans."
Tournament director Nicolas Lamperin says securing Auger-Aliassime is a major coup for the competition.
"Felix was among the most impressive players in world tennis last year and to have him play at the ASB Tennis Arena is such a massive boost for our tournament," he said.
"He is one of the new stars of the world game and he also matches what he does on the court as an outstanding young man in every respect off the court. I cannot speak more highly of him as a tennis player and as a person of high integrity."
The men's competition starts on January 8.
