ATP 250 Delray Beach draw: Fritz, Paul and Michelsen headline, Rinderknech also in the draw

After the conclusion of the Dallas tournament in Texas, a number of ATP Tour players will be heading to Delray Beach in Florida.

As at this week's tournament in Dallas, Taylor Fritz will be the number 1 seed. He will face either Bu Yunchaokete or Rinky Hijikata in his opening match.

Tommy Paul, who was just eliminated in the semi-finals in Dallas, is also expected to play.

Seeded number 2, he will be exempt from the first round and will face the winner of the match between Arthur Rinderknech, the only Frenchman taking part in this 2025 edition, and a player from the qualifying round.

Third seed and third American player is Alex Michelsen. The 20-year-old, ranked 36th in the world, could meet up with Alexander Shevchenko if the Kazakh manages to win his first round match.

Other players to watch include Matteo Arnaldi, Brandon Nakashima, Alejandro Davidovich Fokina, Marcos Giron and Reilly Opelka.

After his final in Hong Kong at the start of the season and his heroic victory over Monteiro at the Australian Open, Kei Nishikori, winner of his first career title in Delray Beach in 2008, will be making his return to Florida and will have to overcome the trap set by Mackenzie McDonald for a place in the second round.
