About Albert Montañés

Born 1980. Albert Montañés is a Spanish tennis player.

Albert Montañés Roca (, ; born 26 November 1980) is a Spanish former professional tennis player. He first entered the top 100 in 2001, achieved a career-high singles ranking of world No. 22 in 2010, and has won six singles titles and two doubles titles.

He holds the record for most first-round exits at Grand Slam events; 35 reached at Wimbledon in 2016, beating Kenneth Carlsen's long standing record of 30 first-round exits. Montañés' career ended at the 2017 Barcelona Open, where he lost to countryman Feliciano López in the second round.
