Following the announcement of Nick Kyrgios, the Frenchman becomes the second confirmed player for the fifth edition of the ATP tournament in Santa Ponça.
Gaël Monfils, the newly crowned champion of the Open 250 de Auckland, will be back on the island!

Gaël Monfils, one of the most electrifying players on the ATP Tour, secured his title in Auckland on Saturday, delivering a masterclass performance and thrilling fans with his trademark acrobatic play and determination. His victory in New Zealand underscores his exceptional form heading into the 2025 season. Fans can look forward to seeing him bring the same passion and energy to Mallorca in June. Last year, Monfils captivated the crowd at the Mallorca Championships with his thrilling matches, reaching the semifinals before falling to the eventual champion Alejandro Tabilo.
“Having a player of Gaël’s calibre, fresh off his triumph in Auckland, alongside recently confirmed Nick Kyrgios, reflects the level of excitement and quality this tournament brings to the tennis calendar,” said Edwin Weindorfer, CEO of e|motion Sports. “We’re proud to provide a world-class platform for these stars to showcase their talent on grass while enjoying the beauty of Mallorca.”
