Spizzirri received qualifying wildcards for the 2021 US Open and the 2023 US Open. In the 2021 US Open, he achieved his first Top 200 win by defeating No. 162 Tabilo in the first qualifying round. He reached the third qualifying round in the 2023 US Open before having to retire in the deciding set. At the 2023 Newport tournament, Spizzirri made his ATP Tour debut as a wildcard but lost in the first round to Moutet.
On the ITF Tour, Spizzirri has a career record of 34-14, including 3-1 in finals. He has won titles at the 2021 M25 Decatur, 2024 M25 Tulsa, and 2024 M25 Laval tournaments. During his last year as a junior, Spizzirri teamed up with Zink to win the 2019 US Open Junior boys’ doubles title and they captured the 2023 Lexington Challenger title in July.
Before turning pro, Spizzirri played college tennis at the University of Texas and finished his junior year as the No. 1 ranked Collegiate singles player in the country. This will be his second ATP Tour appearance after debuting in Newport last year and
losing in the first round to Moutet. Coming off his semifinal run in Winnipeg, his new career-high ranking sets his sights on capturing his first ATP Tour win.
Li Tu, on the other hand, is 28 years old and currently ranked at World No. 208, with a career-high ranking of No. 186. In 2024, he has a record of 0-1, losing in the first round of the Brisbane tournament. In the 2023 Newport tournament, he reached the second round. Tu broke into the Top 200 in March 2024 and achieved his career-high ranking shortly after winning the M25 Traralgon title on home soil.
Tu made his ATP Tour debut at the 2021 Melbourne-2 tournament as a wildcard, which was only his second professional tournament since his retirement in 2014. He earned his first ATP Tour win at the 2023 Newport tournament by defeating No. 83 Vukic in the first round, which is the biggest win of his career. As a qualifier, he reached the semifinals and final of the 2022 Seoul tournament, ultimately winning his first title.
At the start of the 2021 season, Tu had a record of 5-17 on the ITF Tour. However, since then, he has improved significantly, with a record of 82-17 since 2021, including winning nine titles. He received his first Grand Slam wildcard at the 2021 Australian Open but lost in four sets to F. Lopez.
