Watch the Madrid Open 2025 in the latest Masters 1000 series even as the ATP and WTA tennis calendars combine for arguably the biggest clay court tournament outside of the French Open.

The upsets just keep coming at La Caja Magica, as men's top seed Alexander Zverev lost in straight sets to 20th-ranked Francisco Cerundolo on Tuesday. The German's exit means a first-time winner is guaranteed in the men's event, with Carlos Alcaraz, Novak Djokovic and Andrey Rublev all already out.

Lucky loser Gabriel Diallo, of Canada, has reached the fourth round, as has fifth seed Jack Draper after his opponent Matteo Berrettini retired hurt after a set of their match. Big-serving Jakub Mensik is also still in the hunt, the recent Miami Open champion having demolished Alexander Bublik, the conqueror of Rublev.

In the women's draw, top seeds Aryna Sabalenka and Iga Swiatek both made it to today's quarter-finals, albeit in differing ways. Sabalenka was at her ruthless best, overwhelming Peyton Stearns in straight sets, but Swiatek went the distance against Diana Shnaider. The defending champion made 50 unforced errors and must improved against Madison Keys in the quarter-finals today.

Below we have all the information on how to watch Madrid Open 2025 tennis from anywhere in the world with details on worldwide TV channels, broadcasters and any free streams. Plus there's a rundown of the favorites for the men's and women's titles, the seeds and past winners to get you in the mood.

Madrid Open 2025 order of play – Day 9 (Wednesday 30)

It's women's quarter-final day at the Madrid Open with some huge match-ups to enjoy.

The biggest is arguably the first. Madison Keys against Iga Swiatek is a repeat of the Australian Open semi-final, won by the American en route to her maiden grand slam title, and will be a cracker. Aryna Sabalenka is on Manolo Santana Stadium later in the day against in-form Marta Kostyuk, while all eyes will be on a Madrid lunchtime encounter between reigning Indian Wells winner Mirra Andreeva and former US Open champion Coco Gauff.

As if that weren't enough, the men's fourth round reaches its conclusion. Fifth seed Jack Draper takes on 11th-ranked Tommy Paul in arguably the game of the day alongside Alex De Minaur against Lorenzo Musetti.

Who are the Madrid Open 2025 favorites?

With Carlos Alcaraz announcing his withdrawal on Day 3, defending champion Andrey Rublev and two-time former winner Alexander Zverev may fancy their chances in Madrid, though neither has shone particularly brightly in 2025. Jack Draper won Indian Wells, but clay is far from the Brit's favorite surface. Then there's Novak Djokovic, coached by former champion here Andy Murray, who is seeking a first title in 2025 but knows how to win.

For an outside bet, another Spaniard Alejandro Davidovich Fokina could go deep after making the last four in Monte Carlo, while Italian baseliner Lorenzo Musetti reached the final. Holger Rune, meanwhile, beat Alcaraz in the final of the Barcelona Open last week. All are specialists on the dirt.

For the women, defending champion Iga Swiatek lives for the clay-court season and the four-time French Open champion's movement and consistency will go a long way to securing a second successive title in Madrid.

Top seed Aryna Sabalenka may not be the most natural on clay, but the Belarusian is a born shot-maker and has the weaponry to blast any opponent off court. Elsewhere, Mirra Andreeva, who will turn 18 mid-tournament, showed her superb game and steely nerve to win Indian Wells, while Paula Badosa is another Spaniard with a solid reputation on this surface and who has started 2025 in fine form.
