Fourth seed Luciano Darderi begins his 2026 season in Auckland and will play wildcard Alejandro Tabilo in the second round. This will be their sixth career meeting, and below we have a prediction for the match.
Luciano Darderi had a poor end to last season and will be hoping he doesn't start a new campaign with the same trajectory. The Italian closed out 2025 with five successive losses.
He suffered defeats in Athens, Paris, Shanghai, Almaty, and Vienna. Darderi, who lost in the first round in his Auckland debut last season, is currently ranked 24th in the ATP.
Though he ended 2025 poorly, Darderi had an overall strong campaign, as he won 38 matches and claimed three tour titles, all on clay.
Alejandro Tabilo is a former Auckland champion. The Chilean was crowned champion in his debut campaign in 2024. His title defence did not go as planned last term, as he was eliminated in the second round.
Tabilo’s victory here two seasons ago earned him his first tour title, and he has gone on to win two more. His recent title was achieved last September in Chengdu.
The 28-year-old started the season last week, appearing in Hong Kong, where he lost in the first round as a qualifier. With three wins from four, Tabilo has moved up to 78th in the live ranking.
