It is not the first time that Toni Nadal speaks openly and without reservations about Rafael Jódar and his potential. In his latest appearance on the program Radioestadio, Rafa's uncle believes that he will be able to trouble Sinner and he assures that he would not be surprised to see the Madrid player in the top-10 of the ATP ranking at the end of this season.

Jack Draper suffered a new physical issue in Barcelona and it seems that it could be more significant than initially thought. Sources close to the British player suggest that he could miss the rest of the clay court season, including Roland Garros. This will result in a significant drop in the ATP ranking for the British player, who is currently 48th in the live rankings after losing the 650 points from the Madrid tournament. He is defending quarterfinals in Rome and round of 16 in Paris, so the decline could be substantial.

Rafael Jódar is very close to the prize of competing in the 2026 ATP Masters 1000 Rome as a seeded player, with all the privileges that entails. The young man from Madrid is on a mission to reach Roland Garros 2026 as one of the top 32 players, and if he enjoys the status of being a seeded player at the Foro Italico, he would start his journey directly in the second round, conserving energy and ensuring he earns some points, as well as facing an opponent who isn't among the best. To cement this position, he needs to either defeat Sinner at the Caja Mágica, or hope that Blockx does not win the tournament or reach the final. Currently, the Spaniard is ranked 34th in the world, but with the confirmed withdrawals in Rome of Alcaraz and Fritz, he would now be the 32nd seeded player.

Daniil Medvedev came very close to securing his spot in the quarterfinals of the Mutua Madrid Open 2026, but ultimately succumbed to the outstanding performance of Flavio Cobolli in the crucial moments. After being eliminated, he appeared before the press and made several headlines. "It was an incredible match and the defeat is very painful. Everything was decided in a few points, he was great, and I am happy with my level. I take positive things from this week and I am already thinking about Rome and Paris because I feel that I am adapting well to the clay court and moving better than before," he stated.

At 01:20 in the morning, the Mutua Madrid Open session ended with Alexander Zverev triumphing over Jakub Mensik in three sets (6-4, 6-7, 6-3). A match between great servers where it seemed everything was heading towards another tiebreak, but the German relied on his physicality and experience to solve the situation earlier. Now he awaits Flavio Cobolli in the semifinals, which won't be an easy challenge either.

The third set between Alexander Zverev and Jakub Mensik began when the clock struck almost one in the morning. Similar to what had happened in previous days, when the last match of the day at the Madrid Open went past midnight, most of the audience at Manolo Santana decided to leave due to the untimely hours at which the match was being played. The stadium looked almost empty in a striking image that reflects what Sinner criticized this morning, acknowledging that having two night matches starting at 8:00 p.m. was too much and that something like this could happen.

Seeing is believing. Not one of the first 8 seeds will play in the semifinals of the 2026 Mutua Madrid Open. Following Gauff and Rybakina's defeats in the round of 16 and the disappointing performances of Pegula and Swiatek, no one expected Aryna Sabalenka to also exit the tournament so early. With the Belarusian's loss, it's already known that one of the finalists will be ranked outside the top-10, while only Mirra Andreeva can uphold the honor of this exclusive club.

Aryna Sabalenka will remain as the world number 1 despite her surprising defeat at the Mutua Madrid Open 2026, but her lead has been reduced by a whopping 785 points. The Belarusian misses a good opportunity to maintain or increase her advantage over Rybakina, who now trails by just over 1,500 points.
