It's special, super special. You know life change (after having them), priorities change, everything change. But I love it. It's an amazing experience. I will change anything for this perfect moment.

Under the post, a user wrote, “The moment aww… Steve Johnson after winning his match, is joined on court by his daughters,” perfectly summarizing the moment.

With a fine debut at the Dallas Open, the American qualified for the round of 32 after defeating Terence Atmanes in the third round. This is the third edition of the Dallas Open in the ATP Tour, with the prize money has increasing significantly to $755,000. The indoor hard court tournament has attracted a lot of local international players like Frances Tiafoe, Christopher Eubanks, Tommy Paul, and Jordan Thompson.

Steve Johnson, currently ranked 246, has shown solid performance at the indoor tournament, as revealed in recent straight-set wins over Terence Atmane and Timo Stodder. With no defeat this year, the 34-year-old stands as one of the favorites to clinch the title.

In Johnson’s last game, he demonstrated an aggressive play that helped him score 25 winners, winning 85% of his points on the first serve and 61% on the second serve. However, the likes of Tommy Paul and Frances Tiafoe stand above him with better ATP ranking and records.
