We detail round by round all the potential duels of the title favorites in the 2026 Conde de Godó, like Carlos Alcaraz.
Martín Landaluce could not continue with his great form after falling in the first round of the Barcelona Open 2026 against the second seed Lorenzo Musetti (7-5, 6-2). The Spaniard started superbly with an early break in the match, taking a 3-0 lead in the first set. However, from that moment on, Musetti started to play at his best and raised his level to what we all know he can achieve on clay courts. One of the best players in the world when his physical condition is good in these circumstances. He came back in the first set showcasing his powerful forehand and a unique backhand, leaving no chance for Landaluce in the second set. The Italian secures his first victory since the Australian Open and will face Moutet in the next round.

The Italian faces the clay court swing with optimism after his return in Monte Carlo, focusing on regaining his physical form and expressing confidence that the results will come.
We detail important aspects of the ATP 500 to be held in Barcelona such as the schedule, timings, prize money, and title contenders.
The Italian assessed the implications of his painful defeat in Monte Carlo and explained what he needs to return to his level for Roland Garros.
Lorenzo Musetti is having a tough start to the year. Everything began great for him with his final in Hong Kong and an outstanding performance at the Australian Open, but his abductor injury while leading against Novak Djokovic has caused him to miss several tournaments, barely making it to the Monte Carlo Masters 1000 for preparation. However, the worst was yet to come, as his loss to Valentin Vacherot in his debut will drop him from fifth to ninth place in the ATP rankings, given his runner-up finish in Monaco last year. The Italian tennis player reached the semifinals in Madrid, Rome, and Roland Garros, so if he continues this trend, the consequences could be even more severe.
