Back in 2025, Stefanos Tsitsipas picked up €885,415 for winning the title, beating Andrey Rublev in straight sets. This year’s champion will take home an even bigger prize.

The champion will receive €974,370, while the runner-up isn’t exactly going home empty-handed, picking up €532,120. The overall prize fund for this year’s tournament stands at €6,309,095.
This year’s figures are slightly up from 2025 when Alcaraz earned €946,610 for his victory. The total prize pool then was €6,128,940. A decade ago in 2016, the total prize pot was significantly lower at €3,748,925.
That year Rafael Nadal claimed the title over Gael Monfils and took home €717,315. Could this be the year Sinner breaks through in Monte Carlo? Jannik Sinner has checked off plenty of milestones, but the Monte Carlo Masters title still isn’t one of them.
His best showings at the event came back-to-back in 2023 and 2024 when he made it to the semi-finals both years. Sinner fell to Holger Rune in 2023, and a year later, lost to Stefanos Tsitsipas, who went on to win the title. Speaking after that defeat to Tsitsipas, Sinner acknowledged how tough it was to move past that result.
