Professional career

2015: Maiden ATP win

He won his first ATP Tour match at the 2015 German Open against Guillermo García-López, when the world No. 31 retired after three games, and the result launched Munar into the top 500 for the first time.

2018: Major debut

At the 2018 French Open and in only his ninth pro tour match and his second major, Munar came from two sets down to defeat compatriot David Ferrer in the first round.[2] He lost in the second round against Novak Djokovic.[3]

2019: Maiden top-10 win, Masters debut, top 60

In Morocco he defeated top seed Alexander Zverev for his first top-10 win, to reach the quarterfinals.

2021: Maiden ATP final

He reached his first ATP singles final at the 2021 Andalucia Open in Marbella, Spain where he lost to compatriot Pablo Carreno Busta.[4]

2022: First Masters third round, Second top-10 win, top 60 year-end ranking

He reached the third round at a Masters level for a first time at the 2022 BNP Paribas Open.

At the Japan Open, he stunned the top seed and world No. 3, Casper Ruud, for his second top-10 win (first was also against a No. 3, Alexander Zverev in 2019 Marrakech).[5]

2023: Masters fourth round

At the 2023 Chile Open he stunned top seed Lorenzo Musetti to reach the quarterfinals.[6] Next he defeated Thiago Monteiro to reach the semifinals in close to two years since Parma in 2021.
