Feliciano Lopez took time out from the practice court to do a spot of modelling for Estoril Open sponsor Massimo Dutti on Tuesday.

The Spaniard, who is no stranger to the catwalks, joined the models in the VIP area at the Estadio Nacional before taking to the courts for his first round match against Alex Corretja.

After posing for the cameras, Lopez said he had enjoyed the experience. "It's exciting, I really like doing the shows, but I was a little nervous," said the Spaniard.

On the clothes, he added: "They are very nice, very wearable. I really like to wear jeans, but I don't usually spend too much time picking clothes when I go out."
