Focus on the prospect of the first round of this week's wild card player tour, and I am afraid that they will return home one by one

Time flies, and it's a new week. A new tour will kick off again. Similarly, as usual, there will be wild card players on the tour this week. So, who will be competing wildcards this week? What are their prospects for qualifying? Let the humble article take you to see it today.

Since the ATP 500 Munich Open is held in Germany, wild cards for this event are basically given to German players. That's how Altmaire, who has already won all four Grand Slam Open tournaments, got his wild card in the first row at the Monte Carlo Masters the other day. His opponent in the first round was a qualifier and with Altmaier's current momentum, he should be assured of progression.

Compared to Altmaier, Hanfmann is arguably a veteran, and despite reaching two tour finals and reaching the top 50 in the world rankings, Hanfmann has only won one tour so far in the 2025 season. His first-round opponent was Czech Mensik, who had just won his first career Masters title in Miami. Hanfman's ability to drag his opponent to the deciding set in the match may be a victory.

As a post-07 Engel, who is currently ranked outside the 300th in the world, it is worth mentioning that he is the first post-07 player to win the first victory in the main draw of the Challenger and the main draw of the tour. Engel will face Hungary's Mauroran across the net in the first round. This player has defeated the strongest post-00 player, Spain's Alcaraz, and Denmark's Rune, who has won the Paris Masters, and is quite powerful. Objectively speaking, if Engel wants to win, I am afraid it is a fantasy. Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think?

Like Munich, the ATP 500 Barcelona Open has essentially given wild cards to Spaniards. Two-time US Open semi-finalists are up against France's Fez in the first round, and Busta has just won one tour tournament in 2025 and has dropped out of the top 100 in the world rankings. On the other hand, Fez reached the quarterfinals in Indian Wells, Miami, and Monte Carlo, and the current professional tennis world is already the era of the post-00s, and Busta, as a veteran, may not be the opponent of Fez.

Three-time Grand Slam champion Wawrinka came on as a wild card at the Barcelona Open, and in 2025, like Busta, he has only one win on tour, and has now dropped to just over 160 in the world rankings. His first-round opponent is Spain's Fokina, who reached the semi-finals of the Monte Carlo Masters last week. Against such a strong opponent across the net, it may be difficult for Wawrinka to win. In this regard, netizens, what do you think?

Spaniard Sergio Ramos, who reached the final of the Masters, deserved a wild card to Barcelona for his first tournament in the 2025 season. In the first round, his opponent was Denmark's Rune. To be fair, Rune hasn't been doing much during this period and Ramos may have a chance to win. Of course, everything will have to wait for time to give the final answer.

Sports is a river and lake, and tennis is also a river and lake. I hope my article can bring some fresh information to all fans. Whether it's compliments or criticisms, maybe it's just to be able to get me far. That's it for today, and it continues tomorrow.(Source: Tennis Home Author: Yixin Jushi)
