DELRAY BEACH, Fla. (Feb. 3, 2026) – The Delray Beach Open has announced a doubles field that includes some of the best in the world. Fans will see Grand Slam champions, Olympic medalists, past DBO winners and NCAA titlists at the tournament that takes place Feb. 13-22 at the Delray Beach Stadium & Tennis Center. Tickets are available at DelrayBeachOpen.com.

 

The doubles competition adds to a stellar list of players in the singles field that includes seven of the world’s top 30 players: No. 7 Taylor Fritz, No. 12 Casper Ruud, No. 20 Flavio Cobolli, No. 22 Tommy Paul, No. 24 Learner Tien, No. 27 Valentin Vacherot and No. 30 Frances Tiafoe.

 

American doubles standout Austin Krajicek, a former world No. 1, Grand Slam champion and 2024 Olympic silver medalist, is teaming up with another former No. 1, Grand Slam champion and Olympic medalist in Nikola Mektic. Also in the draw are defending champions Miomir Kecmanovic and Brandon Nakashima, while Americans Robert Cash and JJ Tracy, the 2024 NCAA champions, seek their second ATP Tour title.

 

Top seeds Luke Johnson and Jan Zielinski are fresh off a semifinal finish last week at the Australian Open. Earlier in last month, Zielinski clinched the winning point in mixed doubles to give Poland its first United Cup trophy.

 

Krajicek and Ethan Quinn have been named to the U.S. Davis Cup team that will compete this weekend in Hungary in a qualifying first-round tie against the host nation. Quinn is entered in the DBO doubles with Canada’s Gabriel Diallo. While they didn't overlap in college, they were both SEC players - Diallo played for Kentucky through the spring of 2022 and was part of the Wildcats' runner-up finish in the NCAA team final in his final year, while Quinn played his freshman season at Georgia in the 2022-23 school year, finishing the year as the NCAA singles champion.
