Borna Ćorić was the defending champion,[5] but lost in the second round to Hubert Hurkacz.

Alcaraz and Djokovic were in contention for the ATP No. 1 singles ranking. Alcaraz retained the top ranking by reaching the final. This was Djokovic's first tournament in the United States since the 2021 US Open, following the lifting of COVID-19 vaccination requirements for international air travelers in May 2023.[6]

This was Djokovic’s 8th Cincinnati Masters final, joining Roger Federer who reached his 8th Cincinnati final in 2018.
