Player profile
Colton Smith moved quickly from Arizona tennis to three Challenger titles
Colton Smith developed at the University of Arizona before turning his college results into a rapid ATP Challenger rise. He won his first Challenger title in Cleveland in 2025, then added two more trophies in 2026. The third came in Little Rock immediately after a transatlantic trip from Roland Garros qualifying: Smith defeated five fellow Americans without dropping a set and beat Michael Mmoh 6-2, 6-4 in the final. That week captured the strongest features of his early professional career, including physical recovery, hard-court reliability and the ability to sustain favorite-level performance through a draw rather than rely on a single upset.

US Open story
Colton Smith seeks a first US Open singles main draw
Smith has not played in the US Open men's singles main draw, although he appeared in the 2025 doubles draw and lost in the first round. His 2026 singles qualifying opener is against Italy's Andrea Pellegrino. Three victories are needed for a first main-draw place, making this a different task from the one-match college duals that formed Smith's background. His Little Rock title supplies a recent American hard-court reference, while his Roland Garros qualifying experience shows he has already handled the compressed schedule around a major. The first New York goal is simply to advance and create a second qualifying match.
What to watch
Colton Smith versus Andrea Pellegrino tests surface control
Smith's title in Little Rock came without a lost set on hard court, while Pellegrino has built much of his record on clay. That does not make the opener automatic; it clarifies where Smith should try to establish the contest. He needs a purposeful first serve, an early forehand and enough return depth to keep Pellegrino from slowing the match into long, shaped rallies. The American's recent travel from Paris to Arkansas and immediate title also suggests he can reset between environments. Fans should watch whether Smith uses the New York pace confidently or becomes passive under the pressure of seeking a first major singles main draw.
