It was Rafa Jódar's first match in the main draw of the Mutua Madrid Open, so nobody said it would be easy. The Madrid native had to endure against Jesper de Jong (2-6, 7-5, 6-4), but he eventually found the formula to show determination and lean on the crowd to step on the gas and make it to the top 64 of the tournament. Alex De Minaur, currently ranked number 8 globally, awaits him there, so there's no need to ask on which court that match will take place. A nice reward for this young man who has been winning the hearts of everyone watching him play for the first time.

The hegemony of Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner on the ATP circuit has generated the evident comparison with the 'Big Three'. However, for David Nalbandian it is still too early, as he explained on 'ESPN Tenis Show'. "Emulate the Big 3? They have to continue like this for 10 or 15 years. They have the potential, but the challenge is to sustain it over time. Motivations, injuries, new generations... Today they are above the rest, but if another player like them emerges in three or four years, they will start sharing the titles. The numbers produced by these three monsters are extraordinary."

We had one thing clear: Jannik Sinner's first opponent in the Mutua Madrid Open 2026 would be French. Benjamin Bonzi and Titean Droguet were competing for that privilege, and in the end, the former secured a spot to face the Italian at the Manolo Santana. Bonzi achieved a hard-fought victory (6-7, 7-6, 6-4) to now enjoy the spotlight on Friday at the tournament. They have met three times in the past, and Sinner won all three, although it's interesting that in all three matches, they went to a third set. Will history repeat itself?

Carlos Alcaraz is going through one of the most difficult moments of his short career due to his wrist injury suffered at the 2026 Barcelona Open. However, according to Greg Rusedski, he should not try to rush things, especially with an injury of that magnitude. "He can't afford a serious wrist injury. Look at Juan Martín del Potro, one of the greats of our sport. He never resolved his wrist problem and never returned to being the player he was. So take your time, make sure you are 100% ready. Don't rush it. I don't think he really cares about ranking points. It's about health being your greatest wealth," he said on his podcast.

Arthur Fils has returned from his back injury in style, with the highlight being the title he clinched at the Barcelona ATP 500 last Sunday against Andrey Rublev. In fact, for a former number one like Andy Roddick, there is only one thing that can stop him. Or rather, two things. "When he is well settled and can control the match's pace, he can put incredible power into the ball. Lehecka, in Miami, took the racket out of his hands, served well, and didn't allow Fils to find his rhythm. It happens to him just like everybody else. His problem is twofold: Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz," he stated in his 'Served' podcast.

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.

Alejandro Davidovich continues with many (and new) trials within a team that will allow him to get back to the top 10. After appointing Mariano Puerta as his head coach, the latest news, leaked by MARCA, point to a renowned second coach who will start working with Foki during the grass court season. This coach is Pepo Clavet, a former coach of players like Feliciano, Khachanov, and Álex Corretja, among others; he will alternate weeks with Puerta and will begin his collaboration from the Queen's ATP 500. A prominent figure who will contribute all his experience to the player from Malaga.

Here ends the story of Roberto Bautista with the Mutua Madrid Open 2026. On the same court where he reached the semifinals twelve years ago, the Castellonese was looking to extend his love affair with the Spanish capital in a year where he ultimately quickly succumbed. It was Thiago Tirante who defeated him in a match where the pace of play and, above all, physical condition, were far superior to Rober's (6-2, 6-4). A chapter closing in a book that will come to an end this year.
