‘We’ve Seen He Doesn’t Crumble Under Pressure’: Carreno Busta Warns Of Jodar’s Growing Threat
Pablo Carreno Busta: Pablo Carreno Busta has had a front-row seat to Rafael Jodar’s rise. Long before the teenager established himself as one of the breakthrough performers of the clay-court season, the former world No. 10 identified traits that convinced him the young Spaniard was destined for bigger stages.
Now, fate has brought them together at Roland Garros, where a place in the quarter-finals will be on the line when they meet for the first time on the ATP Tour.
The matchup carries added significance for Carreno Busta, who first crossed paths with Jodar two years ago in Valencia. Fresh off his US Open boys’ singles triumph, the then-17-year-old joined Spain’s Davis Cup team as a sparring partner, sharing the practice courts with established stars including Carreno Busta.
