2024 Atlanta Open Draw featuring Ben Shelton, Taylor Fritz and Adrian Mannarino as top seeds

Sunday, 21 July 2024 at 15:23

The draw has been confirmed ahead of the Atlanta Open, an ATP 250-level event which will take place between July 22-28, 2024 and features a 28 player singles draw ready to duel.

It is usually a part of the US Open Series and is played on outdoor hard courts at Atlantic Station in Atlanta, Georgia. Established in 2010, it has quickly become a popular tournament leading up to the US Open but this year is being played prior to the Olympic Games.

It will be the final staging of the post Wimbledon spectacle which will fall off the tour in 2025 onwards and it will have a myriad of top names involved. Ben Shelton is top seed. While Adrian Mannarino is second seed, he likely faces Aleksandar Vukic in the second round. Frances Tiafoe is third seed and likely faces Aslan Karatsev early on.
