Spanish tennis has a new name in its history of the Masters 1000. Alejandro Davidovich Fokina has been crowned champion in Shanghai after defeating Rafa Jódar in the final, winning the most important title of his career and adding to his achievements in this category. The player from Málaga thus becomes the sixteenth Spaniard capable of lifting a Masters 1000 trophy, a list that includes several great figures of this sport.

Nadal remains in another dimension

At the top is Rafael Nadal, owner of 36 titles, a figure that keeps him well ahead of the rest of his compatriots by a considerable distance. Basically, Nadal requires special treatment. Carlos Alcaraz occupies the second position with eight crowns, while Juan Carlos Ferrero completes the podium with four. Carlos Moyá has three, ahead of the two trophies won by Sergi Bruguera and Àlex Corretja.

The list of Spanish champions also includes players who found their moment of glory in top-category tournaments. Roberto Carretero, Juan Aguilera, Emilio Sánchez Vicario, Albert Costa, Albert Portas, Félix Mantilla, Tommy Robredo, David Ferrer, Pablo Carreño, and now Davidovich are among those who have won at least one title in this category, along with Jordi Arrese, if we consider the complete historical achievements.

With his victory in Shanghai, Davidovich joins an elite group that comprises different generations of national tennis. His triumph holds added value after being away from competition for two months due to injury and a tour in Asia that had already allowed him to lift another title. Although the player from Málaga has not yet reached the figures of the great Spanish dominators, he already has his name inscribed on one of the most prestigious lists on the ATP circuit.
