Alcaraz already knows who his first rival will be in the Barcelona Open 2026

Carlos Alcaraz will have little time to process everything that happened in Monte Carlo as he will make his debut in the ATP 500 Barcelona Open 2026 on Tuesday, April 14, facing Otto Virtanen, a player who came through the qualifying rounds. This 24-year-old Finn, who once reached 91st in the world and currently sits at 133rd, performs well on both grass and clay courts, with his best results on these surfaces. Last year, he suffered a serious knee injury that kept him off the courts for months, but he has shown a good version of himself this weekend in Barcelona, defeating Vukic and Muller.
