Past winners have included Lleyton Hewitt in 1999, Tommy Haas in 2006, Kei Nishikori in 2008, Juan Martin del Potro in 2011 and Marin Cilic in 2014.

The 2020 Delray Beach Open schedule is set for Feb. 14–23. The first three days of the tournament offer plenty of exciting events, including ATP Champions Tour legends matches featuring former players, a women’s exhibition match between WTA pro Coco Gauff and NCAA champion Estela Perez-Somarriba from the University of Miami and various qualifying sessions. The legends event features two evenly matched teams: Team Europe (with Tommy Haas, Marcos Baghdatis, David Ferrer and Mikael Pernfors) and Team World (with James Blake, Jesse Levine, Vince Spadea and Johan Kriek). The teams compete over six singles matches and two doubles matches. The first team to win five matches is the overall champion.

Who participates in the Delray Beach Open?

The Delray Beach Open features a 32-player singles draw and a 16-team doubles draw. Most of the singles draw is comprised of the best players from the ATP ranking at the time of the entry deadline. Players can choose whether to commit to the tournament or pass. However, some top players have chosen to compete in the tournament. The remaining draw is comprised of three wild card selections (granted at the tournament’s discretion), four qualifying players and various special exemptions (for players unable to make the qualifying rounds). The 16-player qualifying tournament is designed for players who are not ranked high enough to make it directly into the main draw. The four players to advance past two rounds will qualify for the main draw. The Delray Beach Open adheres to a standard single elimination bracket format. The first player to win two sets advances to the next round. When players are tied at 6–6 in a set, then there will be a tiebreaker.
