Each victory of Rafael Jódar puts him in a prime position to be a seeded player in Roland Garros 2026. The progression is certainly astonishing: just a few months ago, he needed to go through the qualifying rounds to earn his spot in the 2026 Australian Open... and now he is just seven points away from temporarily being among the 32 seeds in the second Slam of the year. After his win over Vit Kopriva at the 2026 Mutua Madrid Open, that is the mere distance separating him from the #33 in the rankings, although there is still a tournament in between (Rome) and a lot of tennis to be played for the situation to change. However, the changes in the rankings not only reflect the astronomical progression of the player from Leganés.

Jódar, seven points away from being a seeded player in Paris.
