The 2023 Mutua Madrid Open is set to be a premier tennis competition held on outdoor clay courts at Park Manzanares in Madrid, Spain, running from April 25 to May 7, 2023. This tournament marks the 21st edition for the ATP Tour and the 14th for the WTA Tour, and it is designated as an ATP Tour Masters 1000 event and a WTA 1000 event on their respective 2023 tours.
La Caja Magica, the host venue, boasts clay courts for the championship matches. The main court, named after Manolo Santana, seats 12,400 spectators. The secondary court can hold just over 2,700 fans, while the third court accommodates a little over 1,700. The capacities of the latter two courts were increased in anticipation of Spain’s bid to host the 2020 Olympic Games. In 2019, the venue hosted the final round of the Davis Cup in its new format. La Caja Magica also serves as a location for various cultural and sporting events, such as the 2010 MTV Europe Music Awards ceremony.
2023 will be the first year that the men’s tournament extends to two weeks, and both the men’s and women’s singles draws will feature 96 players each.

ATP & WTA Mutua Madrid Open: History Of The Competition
Mutua Madrid Open boasts a rich history that dates back to its first appearance on the ATP calendar in 1990. Originally, the tournament was licensed to Sweden before changing venues several times and eventually settling in Madrid:
- From 1990 to 1994, the tournament was held in Stockholm, featuring some of the world’s top tennis players.
- In 1995, the championship relocated to Essen, Germany.
- Between 1996 and 2001, the tournament took place in Stuttgart, Germany.
- In 2002, Spain presented the ATP with superior financial conditions, and the modern history of the Mutua Madrid Open began.
In 2009, the Masters event shifted its position on the calendar from autumn to spring, prompting a change in playing surface from hard court to clay. In 2012, the tournament experimented with blue clay for a single season.
A unique aspect of the ATP Madrid since 2009 is that it occurs simultaneously with the WTA event. In 2023, both the men’s and women’s tournaments have extended their draws and schedules. However, similar to 2022, the women’s championship will commence one day earlier than the men’s event.
