Barcelona Open 2025: Men's draw, schedule, players, prize money breakdown and more

The ATP Tour will head to Spain for the Barcelona Open 2025, held from April 14-20. The tournament has attracted plenty of big names, with home favorite Carlos Alcaraz headlining the draw as the top seed. A two-time champion at the venue, he was forced to forego his quest for a hat-trick of titles last year due to an injury.

Defending champion Casper Ruud is seeded second, followed by Stefanos Tsitsipas and Andrey Rublev as the third and fourth seeds, respectively. Three-time Major champion Stan Wawrinka received a wildcard to compete, along with Pablo Carreno Busta and Albert Ramos Vinolas.

With some of the biggest names in the sport assembled in one place, the tournament is set for yet another exciting edition. On that note, here's everything to know about the Barcelona Open 2025:

What is the Barcelona Open?

The Barcelona Open is an annual claycourt tournament on the ATP Tour. It is the second-most prestigious tournament to be held in Spain after the Madrid Open, a combined ATP Masters 1000 and WTA 1000 event. Classified as an ATP 500 tournament, it is one of the oldest tournaments on the men's circuit. The debut edition was held in 1953.

The draw size is reduced from 48 players to 32 players starting this year. Rafael Nadal holds the record for most titles here with 12. To honor his achievement, the center court at the venue was named after him in 2017. Bjorn Borg and Ivan Lendl are some of the other notable greats to have lifted the winner's trophy here.

Venue

The Barcelona Open will be held at the Real Club de Tenis Barcelona in Barcelona, Spain.

Draw and Players

Stefanos Tsitsipas is a four-time runner-up at the Barcelona Open.

Top seed Carlos Alcaraz anchors the top half of the draw. He will begin his campaign for a third title here against a qualifier. He will meet the winner of the match between Tomas Machac and Frances Tiafoe in the second round. Fifth seed Alex de Minaur could await him in the quarterfinals. The Aussie is up against Tomas Martin Etcheverry in the first round.

Third seed Stefanos Tsitsipas is also in the top half of the draw. A four-time finalist at the Barcelona Open, he will commence his quest for a maiden title against Reilly Opelka. He could run into the in-form Arthur Fils, seeded seventh, in the quarterfinals.

Defending champion and second seed Casper Ruud headlines the bottom half of the draw.
