Prize money per round
Monte-Carlo Masters prize money breakdown per round
In shortThe 2026 champion took €974,370 and 1,000 ranking points. A first-round loser earned €25,220, and the event paid €6,309,095 in total.
Monte-Carlo Masters prize money is paid in euros, per player, for the furthest round reached. The singles draw has 56 players, so there are seven rounds rather than the eight of the bigger Masters, and the top eight seeds start in the second round. The ladder is the ATP's official table for the 2026 edition.

The smaller draw changes the shape of the money. Round for round the amounts sit a little below those of a 96-player Masters, but they take one match fewer to earn. A quarterfinalist in Monte-Carlo earned €158,700; the same round in Madrid, a few weeks later, is in the Madrid guide. The champion's €974,370 works out at about 15 percent of the whole purse.
In April the points column counts for as much as the money. A title is worth 1,000 ranking points, a final 650 and a semifinal 400, and a first-round loss only 10. Because Monte-Carlo opens the clay season, those points feed straight into the seedings for Roland Garros six weeks later. A deep run here can lift a player into the top eight seeds in Paris, the group kept apart until the quarterfinals, which is why so many top players treat Monte-Carlo as the real start of their clay season.

The purse in context
Compared with the 35 event rows in the prize-money ledger, by total purse in US dollars.

Each row of the ledger is one tour's edition, so a combined event appears once per tour. See the full ledger.
Four editions, four steps of almost exactly the same size, with €171,240 from 2023 to 2024, €178,365 to 2025 and €180,155 to 2026. That regularity is the giveaway that the ATP, not the tournament, sets the scale. The champion's share grew at the same pace, from €892,590 to €919,075, €946,610 and finally €974,370.
Monte-Carlo and Paris
Why Monte-Carlo and Paris pay the same purse
In shortBoth are 56-player Masters paid in euros, so the ATP gives them the same total. From 2023 to 2025 the two purses matched to the euro.
| Edition | Monte-Carlo | Paris |
|---|---|---|
| 2023 | €5,779,335 | €5,779,335 |
| 2024 | €5,950,575 | €5,950,575 |
| 2025 | €6,128,940 | €6,128,940 |
| 2026 | €6,309,095 | November |
The two events sit at opposite ends of the season, one on spring clay by the sea and one indoors in Paris in November, yet the ATP treats them as the same product, a 56-player Masters 1000 paid in euros. The champion's line is the one place they have differed, €892,590 in Monte-Carlo in 2023 against €836,355 in Paris. If the pattern holds, the Paris total this November will match the Monte-Carlo prize money of €6,309,095.
Venue and dates
Monte-Carlo Masters venue and dates

The tournament's own information page is blunt about the geography. The Monte-Carlo Country Club stands on the territory of the French town of Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, a short walk from the Monaco border. Court Rainier III, the main show court, seats 10,500, a small bowl by Masters standards, and its upper rows look out over the sea. The ATP still lists the event under Monte-Carlo, Monaco, and nobody involved seems in a hurry to change that. The first edition was played in 1897, which makes this one of the oldest events on the tour.
Monte-Carlo opens the European clay swing. Madrid and the Italian Open follow before Roland Garros, and the tennis calendar lays out the weeks.

Men
The 2026 final was a meeting of the two players who have shared most of the big titles of recent seasons, and Jannik Sinner beat the defending champion, Carlos Alcaraz, in straight sets. Nadal's 11 titles are still the headline, but the recent list belongs to Stefanos Tsitsipas, who won three times in four editions between 2021 and 2024. Fabio Fognini's 2019 win was his only Masters 1000 title. Mats Wilander, 18 in 1983, is the youngest champion; Andrew Pattison, ranked No. 49 in 1974, the lowest-ranked. In doubles, Mike Bryan won six titles.
