2024 Hall of Fame Open Newport Draw headlined by Adrian Mannarino, Marcos Giron, Christopher Eubanks and Alex Michelsen

The 2024 Hall of Fame Newport is set to take place between July 15-21 and will be the last grass-court tournament at the Tour level. With the end of Wimbledon, some players quickly traveled to the US to conclude the grass swing before transitioning to hard courts.

The main draw is led by Adrian Mannarino as the top seed, along with a legion of local players, including Marcos Giron, Christopher Eubanks, and Alex Michelsen among the most notable, as well as the return of former World No. 17 Reilly Opelka.

Mannarino leads the Field as Defending Champion

The defending champion is Adrian Mannarino, the first seed who will have a bye in the first round. Unlike 2023, the Frenchman did not have a fruitful grass swing, registering just one win in the first round of the Libema Open, followed by four consecutive losses on grass courts.

Mannarino has dropped some positions in the rankings, and failing to defend his title could see him fall out of the top 30 after more than a year. He will debut in the second round against the winner of the match between Reilly Opelka (wildcard) and Constant Lestienne.

Opelka is making his return to the courts after long injuries to his hip and wrist. The 26-year-old American will compete again in the Newport tournament, more than half a year after his last match at the Charlottesville Challenger.

Local favorites aim for success

Four of the top five seeds are local players arriving with clear ambitions to a tournament with a wide-open draw. Last year's finalist Alex Michelsen will be the third seed and could face Mannarino in a potential semifinal, repeating last year's final.

Marcos Giron (2nd) and Christopher Eubanks (4th) are the main seeds in the bottom half of the draw and are the American favorites to reach a potential final. However, other players to consider include young Czech Jakub Mensik and former Next Gen ATP Finals champion Brandon Nakashima.
