ParisThe story of the Rolex Paris Masters
Why the Rolex Paris Masters matters in 2026
The Rolex Paris Masters runs in Paris, France from 2–8 Nov, played on medium-paced hard court. Bounces and pace sit between clay and grass, which rewards all-court players who can defend, attack and serve in roughly equal measure. It is a Masters 1000 / WTA 1000, the tier directly below the Slams and mandatory for the world top thirty outside of injury. The singles champion takes 1,000 ranking points, plus a prize pool that sits second only to the Slams.
Play starts in 183 days, on Monday 2 November, with the main draw running through to Sunday 8 November.
