Rafael Jódar is very close to the prize of competing in the 2026 ATP Masters 1000 Rome as a seeded player, with all the privileges that entails. The young man from Madrid is on a mission to reach Roland Garros 2026 as one of the top 32 players, and if he enjoys the status of being a seeded player at the Foro Italico, he would start his journey directly in the second round, conserving energy and ensuring he earns some points, as well as facing an opponent who isn't among the best. To cement this position, he needs to either defeat Sinner at the Caja Mágica, or hope that Blockx does not win the tournament or reach the final. Currently, the Spaniard is ranked 34th in the world, but with the confirmed withdrawals in Rome of Alcaraz and Fritz, he would now be the 32nd seeded player.
