The main draw of the Estoril Open is scheduled to begin on Monday, April 3, and conclude on Sunday, April 9.
The ATP Estoril Open is scheduled to take place from April 1–9 in 2023. There will be a number of top players and the most well-known names are set to be taking part in this tournament. Among the top-seeded players to be playing in this competition are Casper Ruud, Hubert Hurkacz, Alejandro Davidovich Fokina, Roberto Bautista Agut, and many more. All these players have significantly improved over the previous year and have moved up the rankings.
The top two seeds Casper Ruud and Hubert Hurkacz have had a pretty rough patch in the last couple of months and their start to this new year hasn’t been as they would have planned. Ruud has played at the ASB Classic, Australian Open, the Indian Wells Masters, Miami Open, and the Mexican Open and he has failed to go past the second-stage mark in all of these competitions. Another great player Hubert Hurkacz will be adamant about a change in fortune at this competition as he searches for a breakthrough tournament after failing to perform well in all the competitions he has played in the last couple of months as well.
Other players such as Alejandro Davidovich Fokina, Roberto Bautista Agut, Sebastian Baez, and Miomir Kecmanovic are among the players who are having a great 2023 so far. And the fans expect a lot of things from these four players going further into the tournament with the champion predicted to be among these players. The draw is quite competitive because there are so many players who are currently on fire. With so many exciting games waiting to happen, this week is sure to be exciting.
