They closed last year with a bang, coming close to the 400.000 mark in paying spectators. Record-breaking figures that speak louder than any statistic about the impact of the new great rivalry in world tennis: the one between Jannik Sinner, the symbol of Italian tennis, and Carlos Alcaraz, the Spanish star who ignited the Foro Italico crowd. It was Alcaraz himself who, at the 2025 Internazionali BNL d’Italia, wrote one of the most intense chapters of this generational duel, defeating Sinner in the final of a highly anticipated match marked by outstanding technical and emotional quality. Anticipation for the 2026 edition is already sky-high, fueled by the desire to see the two leading figures of this new era of tennis face off again in Rome. Italian and international fans are preparing to return en masse to the Foro Italico, the stage of Italy’s greatest tennis celebration. The 2025 edition left an indelible mark on Italian tennis: the historic triumph of Jasmine Paolini, who won both the singles and doubles titles alongside Sara Errani, and the spectacle provided by Lorenzo Musetti’s shot-making ignited the crowd’s enthusiasm like never before, confirming Rome as a crossroads of world-class tennis. The Internazionali d’Italia are not just a tournament, but an event that brings together sport, passion, and entertainment in a truly unique setting.
