The Winston-Salem Open announced today its final main draw wild cards, awarded to Americans Marcos Giron and Brandon Holt, along with World No. 32 Tallon Griekspoor of the Netherlands. World No. 37 Matteo Arnaldi of Italy has also been added to the field as a late entry on his own ranking.
Marcos Giron won the 2014 NCAA Singles Championship at UCLA and won his first career ATP title at the 2024 Hall of Fame Open. This will be his fifth appearance in Winston-Salem.
Brandon Holt is a former University of Southern California (USC) standout who cracked into the Top 100 of the ATP rankings for the first time in his career this summer. 2025 will mark the former USC All-American’s debut appearance in Winston-Salem.
Tallon Griekspoor rounds out the list of 2025 wild cards, with the Dutchman set to make a third career appearance in Winston-Salem. Griekspoor owns a career-high ranking of World No. 21. The 3x ATP title winner most recently competed in Winston-Salem in 2023.
Stefan Dostanic, a standout player on the 2025 National Championship team for Wake Forest, was previously announced as a main draw wild card. Two-time Grand Slam finalist Stefanos Tsitsipas had also previously been awarded a wild card, but it is no longer needed due to the ATP Emergency Rule, which takes effect when certain player withdrawals occur.
17-year-old junior standout Darwin Blanch has been awarded a qualifying wild card, fresh off winning the USTA National Boys’ 18 Championships in Kalamazoo, Michigan.
