The 2026 Rome Masters 1000, a key clay-court event and traditional precursor to Roland Garros, is just around the corner. The draw for the main draw is set to take place, revealing the path to the title for all top contenders and finalizing preparations before the tournament begins.
The main phase of this year’s Rome Masters 1000 will run from Wednesday, May 6 to Sunday, May 17 at the Foro Italico in Rome, though preliminary matches started on Monday, May 4.
The Italian capital tournament will once again feature an exceptional field, but defending champion Carlos Alcaraz will be unable to defend his title due to an injury. The absence of the world No. 2, combined with uncertainty over Novak Djokovic’s participation, makes Jannik Sinner the clear favorite.
One name to watch in this edition is Rafa Jódar, who enters the draw as the last seeded player. The surprising performances from the Leganés native in both Barcelona and Madrid have earned him a first-round bye in the Italian tournament.
