Rafael Jódar will have to work hard to qualify for the main draw of the Miami Open 2026, facing the challenge of competing in a preliminary phase full of obstacles. The young Madrid native needs to win two matches with the goal of regaining the positive feelings that eluded him during his brief stint at Indian Wells.
He will start his journey against the 18-year-old Indian, Manas Dhamne, a young promise in world tennis mentored by IMG, hence his invitation to the preliminary phase. If he wins, Jódar will face either the 17-year-old Brazilian talent, Luis Guto Miguel, or an experienced player who has reached 42nd in the world rankings, like Benjamin Bonzi. Will the Spaniard manage to overcome the preliminary phase?
