Sprint Rental at Rio Open 2026: Power Behind the Biggest Tennis Tournament in South America

From February 14 to 22, 2026, Jockey Club Brasileiro, in Gávea, became the center of world tennis. The Rio Open — Brazil's only ATP 500 tournament and the largest in South America — brought together nine days of world-class competition on the clay courts of Rio de Janeiro, with sold-out tickets and an enthusiastic crowd in the middle of pre-Carnival week.

Behind all of it was an infrastructure that had to perform without failure — and Sprint Rental was an essential part of it.

An event that never stops

The Guga Kuerten Court, stage for the most thrilling matches, holds up to 6,200 spectators. The Leblon Boulevard, an entertainment and gastronomy area spanning 10,000 m², operated continuously throughout the entire week. Giant screens, sound systems, lighting, camera operations, sponsor booths — all running simultaneously, all dependent on reliable electrical power.

A tournament broadcast live to the world, featuring top-50 ATP players and stars like João Fonseca — Brazil's top-ranked player competing on home soil before his own crowd — leaves no room for operational failure.

Power generation that keeps up with the pace of the game

Sprint Rental delivered the power supply to support the event's full operation across nine days of competition — precisely installed equipment, calibrated for the demands of the venue, with a technical team on-site to ensure no service was interrupted.

Because at events of this scale, the right generator makes all the difference. It's not just about switching it on — it's about monitoring, anticipating, and responding in real time.

World-class sport demands world-class partners

Rio Open proved, once again, that Rio de Janeiro knows how to welcome the world. And Sprint Rental was there — behind the scenes, powering every point played, every live broadcast, every experience the crowd enjoyed across those nine days.
