The 2023 Houston Open is one of the first clay-court events in the Atp calendar and we already know the tournament's draw.
The tournament, which is often referred to as the U.S. Men's Clay Court Championship will be played from April 3rd to 9th. Last year, Reilly Opelka triumphed in Houston, but he won't be able to defend his title in 2023 because of an injury that keeps him out of play.
The first-seeded player at the 2023 Houston Open, played at the River Oaks Country Club, is Frances Tiafoe. The top four seeded players have a bye in the first round and so the American will start against Facundo Bagnis or two-time champion Steve Johnson, who won the event in 2017 and 2018.
While Tiafoe can already scout his opponents, the second-seeded Tommy Paul has no clue who will await him in the second round as he'll play against one of the qualifiers.

The 2019 U.S. Open coverage on ESPN has grown in the ratings compared with last year on each of its first four days, the network said Friday. And that’s before Saturday’s primetime showdown in the year’s final tennis Grand Slam tournament featuring 15-year-old U.S. phenom Coco Gauff against defending champ (and 21-year-old) Naomi Osaka of Japan.
ESPN reported that viewership through Thursday’s two rounds, dominated by storylines in the women’s draw, has averaged 691,000, up 26% over last year, with each window outperforming the comparative one in 2018. That peaked last night with ESPN2’s coverage of Gauff’s three-set victory over Timea Babos to reach the third round of the New York-set tournament.
Viewership for the match peaked at 2.16 million late in the match, which Gauff pulled out in front of 14,000 at the main Louis Armstrong Stadium. She became the youngest female to advance this far...
