MONTEVIDEO/STARNBERG, November 10, 2026

The Uruguay Open is preparing to celebrate a special milestone as the tournament stages its 25th edition from November 15 to 22 at Carrasco Lawn Tennis Club in Montevideo. The ATP Challenger event, which offers $75,000 in prize money and valuable ranking points, has announced a strong international entry list featuring three Top 100 players, former champions and several familiar names from the ATP Tour.

Leading the field are Argentine Camilo Ugo Carabelli, currently ranked No. 75 in the world, compatriot Roman Andres Burruchaga (No. 77) and Portuguese Henrique Rocha (No. 100). Ugo Carabelli, a former world No. 43 and semifinalist at the ATP 500 event in Rio de Janeiro last year, successfully defended his Challenger title in Rosario this season, claiming the ninth Challenger trophy of his career. Burruchaga reached the final of the ATP event in Houston this year and also lifted the title in Sao Paulo, while Rocha arrives in Montevideo after winning the Challenger in Porto. The Portuguese also claimed titles in Perugia and Brasilia this season and reached the final in Santiago.

Among the biggest attractions is Nicolas Jarry of Chile, who will receive a main-draw wild card. The former world No. 16 enjoyed some of the biggest moments of his career in 2023, winning titles in Geneva and Santiago, having previously triumphed in Bastad in 2019. He also reached the finals in Buenos Aires and at the ATP Masters 1000 event in Rome in 2024, as well as Geneva in 2019 and Sao Paulo in 2018.

Brazilian Thiago Seyboth Wild, who famously defeated Daniil Medvedev at Roland Garros, is another prominent name on the entry list. He will be joined by Francisco Comesana, who upset Andrey Rublev at Wimbledon, former Roland Garros quarterfinalist Juan Pablo Varillas and Italian Marco Cecchinato. The former world No. 16 and Roland Garros semifinalist reached the final of the Milan Challenger this season.

Former tournament champions will also return to Montevideo. Tristan Boyer, who lifted the trophy in 2024 after defeating Hugo Dellien, will be back alongside the Bolivian, who won the title in 2021. The qualifying competition will also feature two former champions: Genaro Olivieri, winner in 2022, and Thiago Monteiro, champion in 2013 and runner-up in 2023.

Local interest will be particularly high, with Uruguay’s top two players receiving direct entry into the main draw. Franco Roncadelli, the country’s highest-ranked player at No. 258, and Joaquin Aguilar Cardozo, currently No. 288, are both enjoying the best seasons of their careers. Aguilar Cardozo has been particularly impressive, having won 25 consecutive matches.

Tournament director Diego Perez announced the wild cards and entry-list highlights during the official launch, which was attended by municipal and sporting authorities as well as Tourism Minister Pablo Menoni.

With a total of 20 direct acceptances already announced, a number of former champions and established ATP Tour competitors, the Uruguay Open promises an exciting week of tennis. The 25th edition also celebrates the longevity of what is described as the oldest tournament in Latin America and one of the favourite stops on the Challenger circuit for players and fans alike.
