Carlos Alcaraz will see his million-dollar bank account grow regardless of the result of the final of the Mutua Madrid Open, which will be held on Sunday, May 7 at 6:30 p.m. The Murcian tennis player disputes the championship title against Struff on the Manolo Santana court of the Caja Mágica.
The current number two in the world, according to the ATP ranking, could revalidate the Madrid Open title that he already won in 2022. The young tennis player from El Palmar has added three new competitions to his record so far this year and has earned about three and a half million dollars.
In the event that Struff was proclaimed champion, this would be the first prize he has won in his entire career. Despite this, the German tennis player has more than 8 million dollars in his account thanks to his participation in the competitions, which this year have earned him 328,129 dollars.
