Madrid Open 2023 tennis preview
The Madrid Open 2023 will take place from April 25 to May 7, 2023 at La Caja Mágica, Madrid. The prize money is a tasty €7,705,780, but that doesn’t interest Spanish idol Carlos Alcaraz and Tunisian star Ons Jabeur, who each triumphed in La Caja Mágica a year ago. Defending their titles will be reward enough.
There have only been two successful defenses of the women’s title in the tournament’s history, and there are at least three players in the draw who feel as closely associated with the Manolo Santana as Jabeur.
Paula Badosa is always the fan favourite, Petra Kvitova has won the tournament three times and the Madrid Open is the only clay tournament Aryna Sabalenka has ever won. The Belarusian, who is having the best season of her career, returns to the Spanish capital as a grand slam winner.
Not to mention world No. 1 Iga Swiatek, who was sidelined last year with a shoulder injury, and Elena Rybakina, who competes here as a true elite force on the tennis grid for the first time since its inception.
The men’s tournament, on the other hand, almost always reflects the ranking. Only three editions of the Madrid Open have been won by someone who was not ranked No. 1, but the man who currently tops the rankings, Novak Djokovic, has pulled out with an elbow problem.
With Rafael Nadal also absent, current world No. 2 Alcaraz will have the full support of the locals, although Russian duo Daniil Medvedev and Andrey Rublev look well positioned to make deep runs of their own as they weeks each have won major titles.
