The ATX Open in Austin, Texas, is set to conclude the initial phase of the post-Australian Open hardcourt season. This WTA 250 tournament, being the premier women’s sporting event in Austin, promises an exciting lineup featuring several top competitors.
As the top seed at the 2025 ATX Open, Jessica Pegula, ranked 5th globally, will lead the charge. However, the American enters the tournament with less-than-ideal momentum, having lost two of her last five outings.
Second-seeded Diana Shnaider is also facing challenges, having exited both Doha and Dubai earlier than expected. Fourth-seeded Yuan Yue will aim to defend her 2024 title during this week’s competition.
The top eight seeds include Peyton Stearns, Mccartney Kessler, Moyuka Uchijima, Katie Volynets, and Suzan Lamens, rounding out a strong field at the Austin event. Below, we outline key details regarding the 2025 ATX Open:

Participants compete for 250 WTA ranking points awarded to the champion.
Venue

Draw and Players
World No. 5 Pegula headlines the initial quarter of the draw. She begins her campaign against Netherlands’ Arantxa Rus, with a potential quarterfinal clash against eighth-seeded Uchijima on the horizon.
The second quarter features top seeds Yue and Volynets. While Yue, currently ranked World No. 49, enjoys a favorable draw, Volynets may need to overcome two-time Grand Slam winner Petra Kvitova and former World No. 32 Ajla Tomljanovic to move into the quarterfinals.
Schnaider, the second seed, confronts a competitive quarter, with challengers such as 2025 Hobart International champion McCartney Kessler, in-form Sorana Cirstea, German veteran Laura Siegemund, and other talented Americans like Caty McNally and Bernarda Pera standing in her way.
