Carlos Alcaraz and Frances Tiafoe, two of tennis’s brightest stars, are teaming up again for a spectacular exhibition match in San Juan, Puerto Rico, on March 2, 2025. Hosted by Puerto Rico’s own Monica Puig, the Olympic gold medalist, the event promises to be a historic tennis showcase at the iconic Coliseo de Puerto Rico José Miguel Agrelot.
This one-night extravaganza, dubbed the “Battle of Legends,” follows their recent electrifying performance at the Charlotte Invitational, where the duo entertained over 16,000 fans. Alcaraz, the reigning Wimbledon and Roland Garros champion, and Tiafoe, a US Open semifinalist, share an incredible camaraderie on and off the court. Alcaraz remarked, “He’s always giving good vibes to everyone. That’s why we connect so well.”
With a production budget of $3 million and a venue capacity of 18,500, the event is set to be Puerto Rico’s largest tennis spectacle. Beyond the match itself, fans can expect a three-day celebration featuring youth tennis clinics, VIP experiences, and exclusive tourism activities.
“I’m thrilled to play in Puerto Rico for the first time,” said Alcaraz. “The energy and passion here are incredible, and sharing the court with Frances in front of this crowd will be unforgettable.”
Puig, excited to host the event, added, “Bringing Carlos and Frances to Puerto Rico is an honor. This event isn’t just about tennis—it’s about showcasing the island’s potential for world-class sports and creating a lasting positive impact.”
