Monte Carlo Masters

The Monte Carlo Masters is one of the most prestigious clay-court tennis tournaments on the ATP Tour and marks the beginning of the European clay season.

Officially known as the Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters, the tournament is an ATP Masters 1000 event and is traditionally the first major clay-court stop before the Madrid Open, Italian Open, and French Open.

Although it is commonly referred to as the Monte Carlo Masters, the event is actually played at the Monte-Carlo Country Club, which is located in Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, France, just beside Monaco, with the 2026 tournament running from the 5th to the 12th of April 2026.
