Top Americans, including five-time champion John Isner, Taylor Fritz, Frances Tiafoe and the Bryan brothers, are set to return for this year's BB&T Atlanta Open. A combination of both rising stars and established Top 50 players will battle for the title starting on Monday at Atlantic Station in Midtown Atlanta.

Held in a renovated location with a new stadium, the ninth annual BB&T Atlanta Open now sits on five-plus acres at Atlantic Station's Pinnacle Lot, lending more room for amenities and fan experiences.

The event will also feature a variety of food trucks which will be stationed at the tournament for the first time, and will also have more air-conditioned locations.

Jack Sock will be starting his comeback in Atlanta as a wild card entry. He hasn't played since the Australian Open due to a thumb injury.

For the second straight year, Venus Williams was part of the Sunday Showdown Match but this time facing a new opponent, Madison Keys. Williams would take out her fellow American in two competitive sets.

Former US Open champion Andy Roddick will be making another appearance at the BB&T Atlanta Open, taking on former world No. 15 Robby Ginepri in a special Monday night exhibition. The two Americans have squared off on numerous occasions including junior tennis, pro and senior events, but Ginepri has only bested Roddick once in 10 professional encounters.

All in all, it will be another action-packed event with young, vibrant players such as Tiafoe, Felix Auger-Aliassime and Reilly Opelka hungry to take the city's 2019 edition.
