Small country, big events! Tennis fans will tell you that the Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters tournament is a must-see on the circuit… For the tennis as well as for its breathtaking setting. The power of high-level sport, the magic of Monaco: a picture is worth a thousand words!
A land of champions
An entire era lies between Stefanos Tsitsipas in 2022 and Rafael Nadal in 2005… An era of the single-handed domination of the Majorcan player, who crushed his competition there 11 times. And many more champions have also made their mark in the tournament’s history.

The organisation of a unique tennis tournament
Ball boys and girls, umpires, technicians… In terms of organisation, everybody is ready to do their bit to make this tournament a great sporting event. It’s no secret that the courts of the Monte-Carlo Country Club are popular with the big players. According to Stefanos Tsitsipas, clay courts are particularly suited to sliding. Spectacle guaranteed!

And last but not least… it’s Monaco!
The ochre of the clay court, the green of the pines of the Monte-Carlo Beach, the azure of the sky and the iridescent blue of the Mediterranean: stunning.
The courts of the Monte-Carlo Country-Club overlook the bay. On one side there is the Monte-Carlo Beach, on the other, on the Larvotto peninsula, is the Monte-Carlo Bay Hotel & Resort.
And not far away, the whole of Monaco is there for delighted visitors to enjoy!
