The midwest star George Lott ranks as the era's top contender for the national singles crown behind Tilden and Hunter. The Chicago talent defeated Tilden and Lacoste in prior minor events and took a set from Cochet in Davis Cup duty. Lott is viewed as a future champion if the veterans stumble, with a noted record of strong performances in 1925.
