World number two Andy Murray has been named as the first seed at next week's Cincinnati Open.
In the absence of the injured Novak Djokovic, Murray features at the top of the draw but it remains to be seen whether the 29-year-old will take part in the Masters Series event.
The Great Britain representative is currently preparing for his eighth game at the Olympic Games and with a guaranteed bronze-medal match to follow, he could choose to have a week off ahead of the US Open.
Murray has received a bye in the first round, with either Ivo Karlovic or Juan Monaco awaiting the Scot in the last 32.
