Former American tennis professionals John McEnroe, Andy Roddick, John Isner, and Sam Querrey will play in the 2026 Dallas Open<\/a> All-American Classic, the tournament announced Monday. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to bring together four beloved American tennis stars for what promises to be an unforgettable evening of entertainment,\u201d said Dallas Open tournament director Peter Lebedevs in a news release. <\/p>\n

Roddick, 43, is a former world No. 1 who won his only career major at the 2003 U.S. Open. He played in four other major finals (one at the U.S. Open and three at Wimbledon) losing them all to his rival Roger Federer. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe Dallas Open has quickly become one of the premier events on the ATP Calendar,\u201d Roddick said. \u201dI\u2019m honored to play alongside these guys and be part of the night. We all know how to compete and have fun on the court, which is what this night is all about.\u201d<\/p>\n

Isner, 40, is a Dallas resident and former top-10 singles player with 16 career ATP titles. He was known for his powerful serve, which averaged about 140 mph, but which went over 155 mph on occasion. He\u2019s also played in the longest tennis match of all time, winning over five sets and 183 games against Nicolas Mahut that took 11 hours and five minutes across three days at Wimbledon in 2010.<\/p>\n

Querrey, 38, peaked at No. 11 in the men\u2019s singles rankings, winning 10 career titles and having a career-best majors finish at the semifinals of Wimbledon in 2017.<\/p>\n

Tennis fans will also recognize the quartet from their contributions in the media after retirement. McEnroe is a prominent tennis commentator for ESPN at major tournaments. Roddick hosts the \u201cServed\u201d podcast while Isner and Querrey are part of the \u201cNothing Major Show.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tickets for the exhibition are available<\/a> with prices around $100. <\/p>\n

The ATP-500 level Dallas Open tournament is set to feature top-ranked Americans Taylor Fritz and Ben Shelton as well as top-level Europeans in Casper Ruud and Grigor Dimitrov. It will take place from Feb. 7 to Feb. 15, 2026 in Frisco.<\/p>\n
