Thomas Johansson was the reigning champion, but did not participate due to injury.

Tim Henman and Greg Rusedski's withdrawals from the tournament marked the first time there were no British players competing in the Australian Open in the Open Era.

This event marked the first main-draw major appearance for David Ferrer, who lost to Lee Hyung-taik in the first round; it was also the final major appearance for former world No. 4 Richard Krajicek.
