Taking place just a week before the 2022 US Open, Winston-Salem is participated by many top-ranked players as a preparation for the upcoming grand-slam championship. It also appeals to the players because of its status among the ATP 250 tournaments. Only recently, in 2016, Winston-Salem Open received the ATP Tour 250 Tournament of the Year award.
In 2022, all the top-seeded are from the top 50 of the ATP rankings. The 1st seed is Grigor Dimitrov. The Bulgarian is currently ranked no. 18 in the world. Dimitrov has had an uneventful year. The highlight of the year for the 31 year old was racing the Australian Open quarter-finals and Indian Wells semis. Dimitrov will be looking forward to ending his title drought of nearly five years.
Seed no. 2 is Botic van de Zandschulp. Zandschulp reached his career-high ranking in 2022 as he broke into the top 25 after a remarkable performance in the grass court season. The 26-year-old Dutch played his first ATP tournament finals at the 2022 BMW Open in Munich.
No. 3 seed was Holger Rune, but to his withdrawal, Rune was later replaced by world no. 32, Maxime Cressy. Cressy won his maiden ATP Tour title this year in Newport, defeating John Isner at the final of the 2022 Hall of Fame Open. The 34-year-old aims to keep up his good form in Winston-Salem.
