Spain Announces National Wheelchair Tennis Team Led by De la Puente and Caverzaschi for Upcoming Competition

A Star-Studded Roster for Spanish Wheelchair Tennis

The announcement of the Selección Española Generali de Tenis en Silla highlights a roster anchored by Vigo’s Martín de la Puente, Madrid’s David Caverzaschi, and Murcia’s Enrique Siscar, according to official federation and sport updates.

Spanish wheelchair tennis enters the new competitive stretch backed by an exceptional run of international success, headlined by performances from its top competitors.

Martín de la Puente Leads the Global Elite

At 26 years old, Martín de la Puente anchors the national setup following a standout campaign that solidified his place among the global elite. Records show the Galician player reached a ranking of world number four, driven by a style that yielded major hardware across both singles and doubles circuits.

Grand Slam Glory and Domestic Dominance

De la Puente’s 2025 resume featured a triumph at Wimbledon, where he partnered with Netherlands player Ruben Spaargaren to claim his second Grand Slam doubles title, overcoming British favorites Alfie Hewett and Gordon Reid in the final. That victory added to a trophy cabinet that included the Masters Cup in China, alongside prestigious titles at the Rolex Paris tournament, the Sardinia Open, and events in Barcelona, Rome, Seoul, and the Victorian Open. Domestically, de la Puente continued his reign by capturing his ninth Spanish Championship title in Seville, according to competition records.

Caverzaschi Completes a Remarkable Comeback

Alongside him, David Caverzaschi has engineered a notable return to peak form after overcoming a severe wrist injury that previously threatened his career trajectory. The Madrid native secured his first career ITF1 singles title in Daegu, South Korea, validating his comeback.

In doubles competition, Caverzaschi partnered with France’s Stéphane Houdet to claim six titles, including prestigious Superseries crowns at the French Open and Fukuoka, helping cement his position inside the top eight players in the world rankings.

International Depth Across the Circuit

The broader Spanish wheelchair tennis circuit features depth beyond its top two headliners. Veteran competitor Lola Ochoa claimed a pair of singles titles at Futures Series events in Miranda de Ebro and Montecchio Maggiore, alongside a doubles win in Miranda.

Additional international doubles success came from Mario Roque at the Trnava Futures Series in Slovakia, and veteran Quico Tur, who captured a doubles title in Split, Croatia.
