Ranked No. 3 in the PIF ATP rankings, Alcaraz is preparing for the opening match against Arthur Rinderknech or Alexander Shevchenko in Madrid, where he has won the last two tournaments.

Five-time champion Nadal, who made his first ATP Tour appearance in Barcelona last week since January, will take to the Caja Mágica court for the first time since 2022 on Thursday. Mallorca is preparing for a first-round match against American #NextGenATP Darwin Blanch: this will be only the second ATP match of 16-year-old Blanch’s career.
