Rafa Jódar is beginning to be taken seriously by people. He is no longer a promising talent or a gem to be polished; he is a full-fledged reality. He has proven this with a dream 2026 where he has entered the top 100, ranked as number 57 in the ATP ranking, and won his first ATP title in Marrakech at just 19 years old.

Although he is still young, his tennis speaks otherwise. With a forehand like a hammer and a very effective serve, he deviates from the typical Spanish player by being all about aggression. But it is not only his tennis that stands out, but also his mentality. A very well-grounded mindset that keeps him humble even hours after winning his first professional tennis trophy, defeating Marco Trungelliti (6-3, 6-2) in the Marrakech final.

Rafa Jódar recounted his great week in Marrakech and talked about the advice he receives from Carlos Alcaraz and Rafa Nadal

It is evident in his interview with the daily AS, where he reflected on his historic week in Marrakech. Despite it being one of his first tournaments on clay, the Madrid native glided on the Moroccan clay as if he had been playing on it all his life: “I knew I was doing things right, that I was working very well, and that I had improved my level a lot in recent months. I think overall I have done things very well, and that is what bore fruit this week here in Morocco.”

Even the fact of having only participated in seven tournaments as a professional player and competing for the first time in a final did not affect him, neither at the beginning when he broke the Argentine's serve at the start of the match, nor in the end when he remained calm and prevented any kind of Trungelliti's resurgence: “I knew I had to do things as I had done all week. It was my first tournament on clay this season, and everything went very well. I had a game plan, and it worked perfectly; as the match progressed, I felt better.”

All indications are that this premature success will lead all eyes to be on him in every tournament he plays, and expectations will increase. Even so, it is not something that worries the young man from Madrid: “No pressure. I am very young; I have many matches ahead of me to improve my level, and I still have a large margin for improvement. The important thing is that this gives me more motivation to keep working hard, as always.”

One of Jódar's beliefs, which is leading him to victory at a very young age, is his approach to tennis: “It is something that has come naturally to me since I was young and that I have always enjoyed. I have been progressing step by step, not skipping stages: first in juniors and then gaining experience on the circuit. For me, it is not a job. Every time I step on the court, in a match or in a training session, it is to have fun. Sometimes the results come along, and sometimes not so much, but that does not mean I am not enjoying it. I always try to enjoy and give my maximum level.”

In fact, the confidence he exudes on the court and his age recall the beginnings of Rafa Nadal and Carlos Alcaraz, although theirs are not very distant. However, instead of focusing on comparisons, Jódar concentrates on the advice he receives from both the Majorcan and the Murcian: “I am a little in the middle, so I take advantage of the best from both. I take the advice Rafa gives me when I can talk to him and also from Carlos when we are together. I don't stick to just one: I try to create a good and healthy environment, and I gladly accept all the advice from Spanish players.”

That's Rafa Jódar, a simple and humble guy off the court but a true winning machine on it. Yet, in both personalities lies a common goal: to become the best tennis player possible. And, for now, he is on his way to achieving it.
