The women’s draw order of play for the Mutua Madrid Open 2026 is set for Tuesday, April 21, and the first matches of the main draw will begin that day. Paula Badosa is scheduled to debut against Julia Grabher in the second slot on the Manolo Santana court.
The Spanish player will feature prominently on that center stage, with Jessica Bouzas meeting Beatriz Haddad Maia in the second slot and Kaitlin Quevedo facing Venus Williams in the fourth. The slate gives the opening day a clear local focus, with Badosa, Bouzas and Quevedo all part of a card built around Spanish interest at one of the tour’s biggest clay events.
For Grabher, the assignment means stepping straight into one of the day’s headline matches as the Madrid main draw gets underway. The scheduling leaves Badosa with an immediate test on home soil, and it places the Spanish crowd’s attention squarely on the Manolo Santana court from the first session.
