Roberto Bautista said goodbye to the Magic Box today after losing to Thiago Tirante in his debut at the Mutua Madrid Open 2026. In his final season as a professional, Madrid deserved a memorable chapter, especially considering the place where he became Davis Cup champion just hours after losing his father. With that memory and visibly emotional, Rober left a heartfelt message to the Madrid audience, highlighting the role tennis has had in his value system and remembering that feat of 2019. Goosebumps.
Impossible not to be moved 😢
