Let's see when and where to watch live his match against Rei Sakamoto.

The homework is done, now it's time to enjoy, but the opportunity to extend the dream and keep learning is very enticing. With that mindset dichotomy, Rafael Jódar faces this 2026 Australian Open, aware that his good form and being drawn against a player of the same age and also from the qualifying rounds, positions him as the favorite for victory. The player from Madrid aims to prolong his stay in Melbourne and continue adding experiences to a career with great potential.

He will face Rei Sakamoto, who made his mark in junior tennis by winning at Roland Garros, laying the foundation for a very promising career that hasn't been as rapid as expected. The 19-year-old Japanese player, currently ranked 202nd in the world, possesses more than enough talent to significantly improve his performance this season. He will also debut in a Grand Slam main draw, so nerves may be felt on both sides of the court.
