A new experience that allows you to recover the best version of yourself. This is how Carlos Alcaraz faces his participation in the ATP 500 Rotterdam 2025, an event that should mark a turning point in the tennis comeback of the player from Murcia, who is the top favorite for the title. There are many aspects that one must know about the Dutch event not to miss the great spectacle that lies ahead.

Excitement surges in the hearts of all tennis lovers, aware that between February 3 and 9, top-level tennis returns with the ATP 500 Rotterdam 2025. The tournament held in the port and industrial city of the Netherlands is already a calendar classic since 1974, usually gathering illustrious names, with this edition being particularly interesting. Despite the last-minute absence of Sinner, there will be six players from the top 15 of the ATP rankings, with the notable presence of Carlos Alcaraz.

- Schedule and Timings of ATP Rotterdam 2025

The final draw will start from Monday 3, although tennis will be played from Saturday, February 1, with the qualifying rounds. Each day will begin at 11:00, with an evening session on the center court starting at 19:30, showcasing the two best matches of the day. The semifinals will be held on Saturday, February 8, one around 15:00 and the other at 19:30, while the final will take place on Sunday, February 9, at 15:30.

It is important to note that the tournament consists of 32 players, with 8 seeds not exempt from any round, meaning all players need to win five matches to be crowned as the champion. From Monday to Thursday, the first and second round matches are played, giving each player a day off between each of those stages before the quarterfinals on Friday.

- Seeded Players and Carlos Alcaraz's Schedule in ATP Rotterdam 2025

To know the exact date when Alcaraz will debut in the Dutch tournament, one must wait for the draw ceremony this Friday, January 31 at 19:00, and the subsequent publication of the order of play for the first day of competition. Thus, those scheduled to play on Monday would have their second round on Wednesday, and those who are not, will compete on Tuesday and Thursday. The seeding ensures that none of the eight players with that privilege will face each other in the first round. However, there will be top-level players who could be early challengers for the favorites, such as Korda, Lehecha, Auger-Aliassime, or Mpetshi-Perricard.

1. Carlos Alcaraz
2. Daniil Medvedev
3. Álex de Miñaur
4. Andrey Rublev
5. Holger Rune
6. Stefanos Tsitsipas
7. Arthur Fils
8. Hubert Hurkacz

This setup clarifies that Alcaraz and Medvedev can only meet in the final, while De Miñaur and Rublev are potential opponents for the Spanish or Russian player, depending on the draw. Regarding possible quarterfinal opponents, all of them pose a significant threat and will demand the best from Carlos if he wants to assert his position as the favorite.

- Prize Money and Ranking Points in ATP Rotterdam 2025

One fundamental aspect that highlights the established status of this event in the calendar is the considerable financial prize that it offers, as well as very high participation fees for the world's best. While the latter is not public knowledge, the amount that each player will pocket based on their performance and the ATP ranking points they can accumulate is known.

• R1: 18,730€ / 0 points
• R2: 35,120€ / 50 points
• QF: 65,795€ / 100 points
• SF: 128,785€ / 200 points

- Success Prospects of Carlos Alcaraz and Main Rivals

One of Alcaraz's pending tasks is to win a major indoor hard-court tournament, with his only significant success being the NextGen ATP Finals 2021, without being able to showcase his best in any similar events thereafter. It will be interesting to see the Spanish player in a new setting for his career, having spent little time without competing following his disappointment in Australia and eager to redeem himself from what happened.

He will have to be ready to face powerful opponents from the very first round as with only 32 players and 8 seeds, the competition will be intense from the start. Daniil Medvedev is the other top contender in a tournament where he is already a former champion, while the fast court conditions make big servers like Hurkacz or Mpetshi-Perricard very dangerous. There is no room for relaxation.
