One of the oldest and most prestigious tennis tournaments on the planet begins this weekend, with the world’s leading male tennis players gearing up for the 117th edition of the Monte Carlo Masters. Played near-annually since 1896 at Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, an area just on the French side of their border with Monaco, it’s one of just nine events on the ATP Masters 1000 tour.
The quality of this year’s tournament is shown in the player rankings, with 2023 champion Andrey Rublev seeded fifth behind Daniil Medvedev, Jannik Sinner, Carlos Alcaraz and world number one Novak Djokovic. However, there’s no women’s tournament with the Monte Carlo Masters being an ATP-only events.
The record winner of the tournament is Spanish veteran Rafael Nadal, who isn’t competing this time around and won’t be adding to his 11 titles at Monte-Carlo in 2024. Eight of those came consecutively between 2005 and 2012 and he’s only ever lost once in the final — the 2013 decider to 2024’s number one seed, Djokovic.
