Rafael Jódar will inaugurate a new stage in his professional career next week at the ATP 500 Queen's 2026, competing for the first time in a grass tournament. He does so with great confidence derived from his performance on clay and in a London event full of top-level players. We will tell you which opponents he would face in each round.

The grass season heats up with the arrival of one of the most legendary and iconic tournaments of the season, the ATP 500 Queen's 2026. London dresses up to host at one of its chicest clubs a tournament steeped in history, comprised of 64 players, among whom Rafael Jódar stands out as one of the main attractions and mysteries to unravel, having not yet competed professionally on grass.

Which opponents will Rafa Jódar face in the Queen's tournament?

• R1: Ignacio Buse
• R2: Nakashima / Fucsovics
• QF: De Miñaur / Diallo / Shapovalov / Pinnington Jones
• SF: Mensik / Mannarino / Cerúndolo / Blockx / Brooksby
• F: Lehecka / Humbert / Cilic / Rinderknech / Davidovich / Norrie / Paul

The player from Madrid enters the tournament as a seeded player and will debut in the London event against Ignacio Buse. While it's uncertain how Jódar will perform on this surface, his results in juniors are promising and the Peruvian doesn't seem to be a player born to excel on grass.

It will be an interesting battle between two confident players in the prime of their fledgling careers but far from feeling their game as natural on this surface. In fact, Buse only played one match on grass last year in the Wimbledon qualifiers, where he lost to Cazaux.

If Jódar clears this hurdle, he will face the winner between Brandon Nakashima and Marton Fucsovics. Progressing for the Madrid native would be challenging as both opponents excel on grass, with notable results in Wimbledon – including a fourth-round appearance for the American and a quarterfinal berth for the Hungarian.

This is the complete draw of the ATP 500 Queen's 2026
