The Americans lead in America.
Jack Sock, John Isner, Sam Querrey and Steve Johnson are the top seeds in the upcoming tournament in Houston; also, Bjorn Fratangelo, Reilly Opelka, and Ernesto Escobedo (all from the States) got the three wildcards. If you add Frances Tiafoe, Jared Donaldson and Donald Young, we have 10 Americans in a main draw composed by 24 players.
Possible quarters
Sock – Feliciano Lopez
Johnson – Verdasco
Querrey – Bellucci
Young – Isner
The defending champion is Pico Monaco. In theory, the favorite is Jack Sock, but the American no.1 didn’t seem to be in top form in the recent Davis Cup tie in Brisbane.
