Thanasi Kokkinakis and Nick Kyrgios were the reigning champions,[2] but the pair withdrew due to Kyrgios' knee injury.[3]

Wesley Koolhof and Neal Skupski reclaimed the ATP No. 1 doubles ranking courtesy of making the quarterfinals and other contenders losing in the earlier rounds. Rajeev Ram, Mate Pavić, Marcelo Arévalo and Jean-Julien Rojer were also in contention for the top ranking at the beginning of the tournament.

Rojer was vying to complete the Career Grand Slam in men's doubles, but lost in the quarterfinals to Jérémy Chardy and Fabrice Martin, partnering Arévalo.
