Cristian Garin mantiene vivo su renacer en la gira europea de arcilla El chileno Cristian Garin, de 29 años, ha vuelto a colocar su nombre entre las principales búsquedas deportivas después de imponerse al francés Ugo Blanchet por 7-5 y 6-4 en la primera ronda del Mutua Madrid Open 2026, resultado que lo insertó de nuevo en el cuadro principal de un Masters 1000 sobre su superficie favorita. La victoria confirma la tendencia ascendente que comenzó en marzo, cuando sorprendió a Casper Ruud camino a los octavos de Indian Wells, su mejor actuación en pista dura en dos años. Mirada puesta en Roma • Garin viaja ahora a la capital italiana para disputar la fase previa del Internazionali BNL d’Italia, donde abrirá ante el tunecino Moez Echargui, duelo programado para este 4 de mayo que lo acerca a regresar al Top 70 si avanza al cuadro principal. • Con 360 puntos por defender hasta Wimbledon, cada victoria en arcilla es vital para consolidar su remontada en el ranking ATP. ¿Por qué vuelve a ser peligroso? 1. Salud plena: tras operarse la muñeca derecha en 2024, lleva seis meses sin molestias. 2. Confianza en polvo de ladrillo: el ex Top 20 presume un 66 % de efectividad histórica sobre arcilla, la cuarta mejor entre latinoamericanos activos. 3. Nueva alianza técnica: trabaja desde enero con el argentino Andrés Schneiter, especialista en preparación física y patrones de punto largo, clave para Madrid y Roma. Qué significa para Chile La racha de Garin coincide con el impulso de Alejandro Tabilo y Tomás Barrios, panorama que ilusiona con volver a tener dos chilenos en el Top 50 antes de Roland Garros, algo que no ocurre desde 2009 con González y Massú. Palabras clave: Cristian Garin, tenis chileno, Mutua Madrid Open, Internazionali BNL d’Italia, temporada de arcilla, ranking ATP. English translation Cristian Garin keeps his clay-court revival alive Chilean player Cristian Garin, 29, is back on the sports trending lists after defeating France’s Ugo Blanchet 7-5, 6-4 in the first round of the 2026 Mutua Madrid Open, a result that pushed him back into a Masters 1000 main draw on his preferred surface. The win continues a rise that began in March, when he stunned Casper Ruud on his way to the Indian Wells last 16, his best hard-court showing in two years. Eyes on Rome • Garin now heads to the Internazionali BNL d’Italia qualifying draw, opening against Tunisia’s Moez Echargui on 4 May; a main-draw berth could lift him back toward the Top 70. • With 360 points to defend before Wimbledon, every clay-court win is crucial for his ranking rebound. Why he is dangerous again 1. Fully healthy: no right-wrist pain since surgery in 2024. 2. Clay confidence: the former Top 20 owns a 66 % career win rate on clay, fourth-best among active Latin Americans. 3. New coaching setup: since January he has worked with Argentine trainer Andrés Schneiter, focusing on stamina and long-point patterns—ideal for Madrid and Rome. What it means for Chile Garin’s surge, combined with the progress of Alejandro Tabilo and Tomás Barrios, could give Chile two Top 50 players before Roland Garros for the first time since 2009, when González and Massú shared the spotlight. Keywords: Cristian Garin, Chilean tennis, Mutua Madrid Open, Internazionali BNL d’Italia, clay-court season, ATP ranking.
