The Club de Tennis Puente Romano in Marbella will host the ATP 250 event next week, marking the European clay swing alongside Cagliari in Sardinia.
Andrey Rublev and Roberto Bautista Agut decided to withdraw following a deep Miami Open run, while Stan Wawrinka had to skip the event after undergoing minor surgery. Alexander Zverev asked for a wild card but will not use it, deciding to miss the next week and take more time on the practice court ahead of the season's second Masters 1000 tournament in Monte Carlo.
Pablo Carreno Busta is the top seed, facing a qualifier in the second round ahead of the clash against Facundo Bagnis, Francisco Cerundolo and the young Dane Holger Rune, who received a wild card.
Experienced clay-courters Albert Ramos-Vinolas and Federico Delbonis lead the second quarter, facing Lucas Pouille, Ricardas Berankis, Norbert Gombos, Roberto Carballes Baena or Juan Ignacio Londero in the battle for the semis.
Feliciano Lopez and Casper Ruud are the top-ranked players in the third quarter, with Taro Daniel, the young gun Carlos Alcaraz, Mikhail Kukushkin and Gianluca Mager hoping to spoil their party and battle for the semi-final. Fabio Fognini, Jaume Munar, Pedro Martinez and Alejandro Davidovich Fokina are the favorites in the bottom quarter.

- Vukov is doing this to Lena... AGAIN!!!!! WTA's autonomous collective should be dismantled for allowing Vukov to re-emerge from his hand-slapping suspension. Just ask WTA employees how that's been going lately as they witness his continued verbal abuses. Women's Pro Tennis should start over.
mandoist08-11-2026 - Can't help but suspect Vukov is back to his old self again. Thank you, WTA. Perhaps you can give them a "Battling Couple of the Year Award 2026" ??mandoist08-11-2026
- Wtf? Why is there no reason? And what about the men's?Bel08-11-2026
- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.mandoist06-11-2026
- Enough of her bullshit. Go marry someone.mandoist06-11-2026
- Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Jess is absolutely correct! But the disrespect is a trait I have noticed in most of the Russian players. Mirra is good but very immature and lacks humility. Conceivable needs to get a handle on that!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Having spent weeks and weeks through the years on tour, I can say with confidence that Conchita was (is) one of the very few who realize the surprising level of maturity (and sometimes lack of) which Mirra seems to have developed in such a demanding adult world of Pro-Tennis. While at the same time reminding herself (Conchita, that is) that Mirra is still young and developing mentally and physically. The general public may forget at times, or not at all realize, these modern era young athletes do not have a 'normal' Youth. It's a major sacrifice, among countless sacrifices, these athletes must make. People who blow-off that fact are ignorant and unfair when they blurt out, "They choose fame so they have to put up with the intrusions on their lives". No, they do not.mandoist05-11-2026
- Okay... someone with a camera was EAVESDROPPING on a private conversation. Shouldn't that be the point of discussion here? Regardless of the sensationalist crap by media, Pegula (and anyone) has a right to an opinion. There used to be an expectation that private conversations were respected, regardless of 'stardom' and whatever other defensive excuses media tries to shove in our faces. Boo-hoo if feelings are hurt. BTW: Having been employed at various tourney venues, etc., I can't tell you how nasty and offensive players can be when discussing their opponents and colleagues... in "private". Well, I could, but won't. I also challenge anyone to deny what Jessica said is false.mandoist05-11-2026
