Draw Delray Beach Open 2025 featuring Taylor Fritz, Tommy Paul and Alex Michelsen

Sunday, 09 February 2025 at 13:54

The draw has been completed ahead of the Delray Beach Open which begins another week of ATP action before the Middle East swing goes into full focus with Taylor Fritz, Tommy Paul and Alex Michelsen headlining the draw in Florida. It takes place between February 10-16, 2025.

Unlike the WTA which has Abu Dhabi and then Doha next week, the ATP takes more of a truncated approach with Doha and Dubai back-to-back followed by the run-in to the Sunshine Double. So it is a key tournament en route to further ATP 1000 tournaments and a stepping stone for a lot of the top American names to be in sunnier climbs of Florida to get ready for the Middle Eastern heat.

For many players this is a chance to play on the ATP 250 or 500 circuit, for others it is time off such as for Jannik Sinner. But Taylor Fritz who lost early in Dallas this past week, he will aim to make up for his early defeat with a run here. He is defending champion and is joined as second seed by the fellow finalist in Tommy Paul.

While other top seeds include Matteo Arnaldi, Marcos Giron and Brandon Nakashima. FIrst round ties to watch include Kei Nishikori v Mackenzie McDonald as well as Christopher Eubanks v Reilly Opelka.

Established in 1993, the tournament originally took place in Coral Springs before moving to its current location in 1999. Over the years, it has featured rising stars and former Grand Slam champions, with past winners including Lleyton Hewitt, Juan Martín del Potro, Kevin Anderson, and Frances Tiafoe.

Played on outdoor hard courts, it is a key stop on the early-season U.S. hard-court swing, often serving as a warm-up for Indian Wells and Miami.
