Paul Looks to Reignite Form in Dallas
Tommy Paul needs a strong run to climb back toward the top 20 and beyond, but his recent performances have fallen short of his usual standard.
Despite a 6–3 record on the year, he has dropped sets and matches in spots where he would typically be more convincing.
Recent outings have included a three-set loss to the big serving Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard and a few laboured wins, highlighting the inconsistency in his level.
Even in team competition at the Davis Cup last week, he was pushed hard by a lower-ranked opponent, Zsombor Piros.
The positive for Paul is a return to familiar U.S. hard courts, where he has traditionally thrived. His record in Dallas is particularly strong, with deep runs in both previous appearances, including a title-winning campaign in 2024.

Brooksby Hoping for Reset on U.S. Hard Courts
Jenson Brooksby’s form is a bigger concern, with two losses from his first three matches of the year, including a heavy defeat to Sebastián Báez in Auckland.
He is still searching for rhythm and confidence after a stop-start period. A return to U.S. hard courts should offer some comfort, as most of his best results have come on home soil.
Four of his five career finals have been played in the United States, including a runner-up finish in Dallas in 2022.
Since returning from suspension, however, indoor success has been limited. He has played just five indoor matches across the last two years, winning only once, which keeps expectations in check despite the familiar setting.

Verdict
Tommy Paul looks a bit short in the market given his current form and patchy fitness, with neither fully convincing in recent weeks. That keeps this matchup more open than the odds suggest.
On home hard courts, Jenson Brooksby can be expected to dig in and make this a real battle. He has every chance to take it deep and push it to the finish, making the underdog a reasonable side to keep things tight.
