The fourth edition of the tournament – the only ATP tour event in Spain played on grass – runs from June 22 to 29 in Santa Ponça (Calvià, Mallorca). Fans and players especially enjoy the atmosphere of the competition in its Mediterranean surroundings.
This year’s edition features notable players such as US talent Ben Shelton, title defender Christopher Eubanks, the charismatic Gaël Monfils, and local player Jaume Munar. Among the players in the main draw is Chilean Alejandro Tabilo, who recently defeated Novak Djokovic in Rome.
Austrian Dominic Thiem has been given a wild card to return to the Mallorca Championships presented by waterdrop®, where he will play one of his last matches on grass in what is his farewell year. Another wild card has been granted to the unpredictable Italian Fabio Fognini, who never leaves anyone indifferent.
