Despite the elevated status of the event from an ATP 250 to an ATP 500 series event, the draw featured one round less for the first time in its history, meaning reduced numbers of players in the draw. However, there were no byes into the second round for any of the higher-ranked players, as there were previously.

First-seeded Andy Murray won the singles title.
