In this tournament, which will award prizes of 725 thousand euros, takes place on a hard surface indoors and has the Polish Hubert Hurkacz (11) as the top favorite, he will also play Diego Schwartzmann (third seed and 19th in the ranking). The “Peque” will only debut in the second round with the winner of Wednesday’s clash between the locals David Goffin (58) and Gilles Bailly (1185), just 17 years old.

Schwartzman will try to repeat this season the good performances he produced in the 2017 and 2021 editions, as he reached the final on both occasions. Five years ago, the man from Buenos Aires fell to the Frenchman Jo Wilfred Tsonga, 6-3 and 7-5, while last year he was beaten by the Italian Jannik Sinner (12), by a double 6-2.
