Isner To Go For Sixth Atlanta Title; When Is The Draw & More

All about the ATP 250 tennis tournament in Atlanta, U.S.A.

Since joining the ATP Tour in 2010, the BB&T Atlanta Open has been won by American in eight of its nine editions: John Isner (5), Mardy Fish (2), Andy Roddick (1). 

Isner, the champion in 2013-15 and ’17-18, will look to continue to trend in 2019 as he goes for his second three-peat at this ATP 250 tournament, and will be joined in the field by fellow Americans Taylor Fritz, Denis Kudla, Reilly Opelka, and Frances Tiafoe. #NextGenATP Australian Alex de Minaur will attempt to follow in Nick Kyrgios’ footsteps by becoming the only other non-American champion here.
