Rafael Jódar is one of the big names at the Miami Open 2026. The Spanish Armada advances relentlessly through Florida, with Carlos Alcaraz flanked by two young luxury lieutenants: Martín Landaluce... and also a Rafa who, at just 19 years old, continues to make his mark in his first year as a professional. This time, his victory over Aleksandar Vukic allows him to debut in the third round of a Masters 1000, a well-deserved reward for his work ethic and a tennis game that keeps improving.

His short journey in the big leagues still makes every event feel completely new for Rafa, with the risk of sometimes becoming something very difficult to manage. The enormity of his achievements can leave a mark that in this case he tries to handle thanks to the advice of his team... and also from names like Rafael Nadal, with whom he coincided at the past Next Gen Finals. On what came out of that meeting, including advice that the Madrilenian does not forget, he chatted with the Tennis Channel team, as well as giving a detailed analysis of the aspects of his game that he wants to improve immediately.
