This was the first edition in the tournament's 21-year history to not feature Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, or Novak Djokovic (collectively known as the Big Three) in the main draw. They won 11 of the preceding 20 editions of the Madrid Open, reaching 13 finals in total.[3]

Zhang Zhizhen became the first Chinese tennis player to reach the singles quarterfinals of an ATP Masters 1000 event.[4] Aslan Karatsev became only the second qualifier to reach the Madrid Open semifinals, after Fabrice Santoro in 2002.[5] The semifinal encounter between Karatsev and Struff was a rematch of their meeting in the qualifying rounds of the tournament, which Karatsev had won; Struff, who was an alternate that advanced to the main draw after withdrawals, won their semifinal rematch.
