World number 102 Emilio Gomez and world number 107 Taro Daniel will face each other in the first round of the Dallas Open. The two have faced each other once before, in 2022 at the Korea Open where Daniel won that first-round matchup 2-0. Gomez comes to this game after making the semi-finals at the Cleveland Open. He won three matches at the tournament. He played two matches at the Australian Open both in the qualifying rounds and won the first match 2-1 before being eliminated with a straight sets loss. The Ecuadorian has won four ATP titles in his career with two coming in 2022. His success in Cleveland has seen him move up two places to 100th place in the world.

Taro Daniel is in lackluster form in 2023 and has won just three matches out of six to start the season. He won the Istanbul Open in 2018 for his only ATP title. On the Challenger level, he has been more successful with seven titles to his name. He comes to this game after a 2-0 win over Kacper Zuk in the Davis Cup. He was eliminated from the Australian Open in the second round by Denis Shapovalov 3-0. He had defeated world number 343, Ernesto Escobedo in four sets (dropping the third) in the first round in Melbourne. He started the season with qualifying defeats in Auckland and Adelaide. He is up two places to 105th in the live ranking.
