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.
In the ATP
250 event in Houston, there will be 8 players from the top-50, and the return
of some significant players aiming to climb back up the rankings, including
Denis Shapovalov, who received a wild card, and Kei Nishikori, who entered with
a Protected Ranking.
Two wild
cards are yet to be determined by the tournament organization. Here is the
current entry list:
