Now added are Croatian world No.14 Borna Coric and 2021 doubles champion, veteran John Isner. In addition to Portugal’s Nuno Borges (No.69) and Germany’s Dominik Koepker “We have a very complete draw for a tournament that has been growing and consolidating every year,” explained tournament director José Antonio Fernández.
“Undoubtedly these players, who have stood out and climbed positions in recent months at the top of the ATP ranking, give a great boost to the tournament and shape what we consider, so far, the best draw of the tournament. We have had a great acceptance in the northern part of Mexico and also in the southern part of the United States,” he added.
This year there are several debutants in the ATP 250, including Tsitsipas, a favorite of the Mexican fans, as well as Khachanov and Paul.
