All-American final set in Dallas Open after straight-set victories

Marcos Giron

In an exciting display of skill and determination, second-seeded Tommy Paul and unseeded Marcos Giron emerged victorious in the semifinals of the Dallas Open, paving the way for an all-American final. Paul secured his spot in the final with a commanding 6-2, 6-4 win over the third-seeded Ben Shelton, while Giron continued his impressive run by defeating the fourth-seeded Adrian Mannarino of France in straight sets, 6-1, 6-3.

Giron, who stunned top-seeded American Frances Tiafoe in the quarterfinals, is vying for his first ATP Tour title in his second trip to a final. The 30-year-old has been in exceptional form, having defeated multiple seeded opponents throughout the tournament. This triumph has provided him with a fantastic opportunity to surpass his career-best ranking of 49th, achieved in 2022. Giron's previous final appearance occurred in San Diego, where he unfortunately fell short of claiming the title.
