Open Court

MORE TENNIS THAN YOU'LL EVER NEED

No seeds yet. But a glimpse of the future as Next-Gen stars Joao Fonseca (who should have a lot of Brazilian support) plays young American lefty Learner Tien (who should have some of his own) in the stadium night-session match.

Fonseca is coming in fresh from a title at the stacked Phoenix Challenger last week.

Also a lot of American content, with wild card Christopher Eubanks playing Reilly Opelka, who is in on a protected ranking.

And Jenson Brooksby, also on a protected ranking after serving a “whereabouts” doping suspension, is on the Grandstand.

(Miami is on ET).
