Rafa Jódar y Martín Landaluce are leaving Spanish tennis on a high note. The two players from Madrid have reached the quarterfinals of ATP Rome 2026 after defeating Learner Tien and Hamad Medjedovic, respectively. In addition, both racquets have achieved a milestone rarely seen since the year 2000, becoming the fifth duo from the same country to reach the quarterfinals of a Masters 1000 event at under 21 years old. Previously, this feat was accomplished by Robby Ginepri and Andy Roddick in Indian Wells 2003 and Cincinnati 2003; Rafa Nadal and Nico Almagro in Rome 2006; and Félix Auger-Aliassime and Denis Shapovalov in Miami 2019.
