Rafael Jodar: Next Gen ATP Finals Record
Rafael Jodar has appeared at the Next Gen ATP Finals 2 times, in 2024 and 2025. Across those editions Jodar played 6 best-of-five short-set matches, winning 0 and losing 6 for a 0% match-win rate, and his best finish at the 21-and-under year-end event was group stage.
2024 — Jeddah, Saudi Arabia: Jodar entered as the 8th seed and was drawn in Group A. He finished the week 0-3 in matches and exited as a group stage, collecting $50,000 in prize money. He did not record a win over a fellow qualifier that week. The title that year went to Joao Fonseca, who beat Learner Tien in the final. Others in the 2024 field included Alex Michelsen, Jakub Mensik, Joao Fonseca, Learner Tien and Nishesh Basavareddy.
2025 — Jeddah, Saudi Arabia: Jodar entered as the 8th seed and was drawn in Group B. He finished the week 0-3 in matches and exited as a group stage, collecting $50,000 in prize money. He did not record a win over a fellow qualifier that week. The title that year went to Learner Tien, who beat Alexander Blockx in the final. Others in the 2025 field included Learner Tien, Alexander Blockx, Martin Landaluce, Nishesh Basavareddy and Nicolai Budkov Kjaer.
Measured against the full alumni field, Jodar sits 16th of 49 qualifiers by career-high ranking. 14 of those 49 players have reached the ATP top 10 at some point in their careers, which is the clearest measure of how reliably the Next Gen ATP Finals identifies future tour leaders. Jodar has not yet joined that group, with his career-high of No. 12 leaving him outside it.
The event uses a shortened best-of-five format with sets to four games, which is why match records here look different from regular tour results. Full winners are listed on the champions page.

Where Is Rafael Jodar Now?
Rafael Jodar is currently ranked World No. 12, matching his career-high ranking. He is 19 years old and still competing on the ATP Tour.
Rafael Jodar has turned 2026 into the biggest breakthrough season of any Next Gen graduate. The 19-year-old Spaniard reached his first ATP 500 final in Washington, beat Lorenzo Musetti twice, and saved a match point against Denis Shapovalov in Cincinnati in a win that matched a teenage feat previously managed only by Carlos Alcaraz and Ben Shelton. He now sits on the edge of a historic Top 10 debut while leading the race to Italy.
The ranking trail we track for Jodar starts at No. 62 in 2024, the season around his first Next Gen qualification, and peaks at No. 14 in 2026. The most recent point in that history has him at No. 14, a net gain of 48 places since we started tracking him. Ranking movement at this level is driven mostly by results at Masters 1000 and Grand Slam level, where the points on offer dwarf anything available on the Challenger Tour.
At 19, Jodar is still inside the 20-and-under age window for the 2026 Next Gen ATP Finals in Italy, so every result this season feeds directly into the Next Gen race standings. Qualification is decided by ranking points earned during the calendar year among eligible players, which means a single deep run at a Masters 1000 event can move him several places in the race.
