Here is an overview of the Madrid Open 2025 draw and schedule, highlighting key players like Aryna Sabalenka and Jack Draper.
Britain`s Jack Draper has secured a spot in the quarter-finals following Matteo Berrettini`s injury retirement. The 23-year-old Briton is now among the top-ranked players remaining in his section of the draw after the exits of Alexander Zverev and Taylor Fritz.
Play on Monday was interrupted due to a nationwide power outage affecting Spain and Portugal, causing initial delays for Tuesday as well.
Tournament organisers later confirmed power restoration at the Caja Mágica venue, announcing that gates would open at 11:00 AM and play would resume at 12:00 PM, according to the original Tuesday schedule.
Among other notable results, Alexander Zverev was eliminated in the third round by Francisco Cerundolo, and Taylor Fritz lost in straight sets to Casper Ruud.
Novak Djokovic suffered his third consecutive defeat, falling to unseeded Italian Matteo Arnaldi. The world No. 5 subsequently withdrew from the Italian Open in Rome.
Jack Draper`s Projected Draw
- QF: Karen Khachanov or Tommy Paul
- SF: Alex de Minaur / Stefanos Tsitsipas / Lorenzo Musetti
- Final: Casper Ruud
