The 2026 ATX Open entry list is official, and the field in Austin is once again led by world No. 6 and defending champion Jessica Pegula.
Coming off another deep run in Melbourne, Pegula returns to Westwood Country Club as the clear favorite in a WTA 250 that continues to punch above its weight.
She is joined by a strong wave of American talent, including teenage riser Iva Jovic and former Texas Longhorn Peyton Stearns, setting up a competitive week as the Sunshine Swing gets underway.
