The Entry List has been confirmed ahead of the 2024 U.S. Men's Clay Court Championship in Houston. It is led by some of the Americans, including Ben Shelton (No. 16), Tommy Paul (No. 17), and Frances Tiafoe (No. 18).
The tournament is scheduled to take place between March 30 and April 7, following the Sunshine Double with Indian Wells and the Miami Open. The Houston Open will be the first competition on clay and will serve as a prelude to the European clay season.
