Pakistan staged its first CUPRA FIP Tour tournament in Karachi in October 2026, with the main draw of FIP Bronze Pakistan I running from 2 to 4 October.

Adrián Ronco and Julián Lacamoire won the men’s title, beating Pablo Pastor and Agustín Reca 6–3, 3–6, 6–3 in the final. Ainize Santamaria and Gimena Sol Pérez took the women’s trophy with a 6–1, 6–2 victory over Nika Sluzhiteleva and Anastasiia Ryzhova.

Ronco and Lacamoire arrived after winning the previous week’s FIP Bronze event in Dubai. In Karachi, they defeated Wagdy Raslan and Aly Zaghloul 6–3, 6–4 in the semi-finals before surviving the three-set final.

Santamaria and Sol Pérez conceded six games across their tournament. Their semi-final win over Gabriela Andrade and Asfa Shahbaz ended 6–1, 6–2, matching the score of the final.

Karachi had already hosted FIP Promises junior events. This Bronze tournament brought the country onto the separate CUPRA FIP Tour, with completed men’s and women’s draws marking its debut.
