World number seven and 2002 Wimbledon finalist David Nalbandian will make his first appearance at the Artois Championships at Queen's Club in June.
The Argentine has joined a strong field that includes Andy Murray, world number two Rafael Nadal and Australian Open champion Novak Djokovic.
Both defending champion Andy Roddick and Australian Lleyton Hewitt will be aiming for a record fifth title.
The grass-court tournament, which is in its 30th year, begins on 9 June.
"I have never been to Queen's before, but everyone told me that it is a good tournament," said Nalbandian. "I am looking forward to being there.
"I like playing on grass, I played my first Grand Slam final on grass in 2002 and I will be in London for one month this time so I think I will be more prepared for Wimbledon than ever before."
Murray, 20, missed last year's Artois Championships due to a wrist injury and will be keen to take advantage of the ranking points on offer this time around.
