Monte Carlo Masters Qualifying Tickets
Qualifying day is the first day of competition at the Monte Carlo Masters. Players who didn’t earn a direct place in the main draw need two wins to get through — both on the same day, usually back to back. Court Rainier III is quieter than it will be later in the week, and that’s not a bad thing. You can watch without fighting for elbow room, and the players on qualifying day are often more interesting to follow than the coverage suggests.
Some qualifiers go on to win multiple rounds in the main draw. The clay at the Monte-Carlo Country Club is heavy and slow, which compresses the gap between rankings. A player ranked 150th who grew up on clay can beat someone ranked 40th here. It doesn’t happen every year, but it happens.
About the venue
The Monte-Carlo Country Club is on the border between Monaco and Roquebrune-Cap-Martin in France — technically most of it is in France, which surprises a lot of first-time visitors. Court Rainier III is the main show court and seats around 10,000. The surrounding courts are smaller and more exposed. On qualifying day you can move between courts freely and get within a few rows of players you’d normally see only on television.
Tickets for qualifying are available in five categories: Upper Tier, Middle Tier, Lower Tier, Prestige, and Super Category. Two tickets are always allocated as a pair — you’ll always sit next to each other. For groups larger than two, seats are arranged in pairs throughout so nobody ends up alone.

Frequently asked questions
What matches are played on qualifying day?
Players compete in the final qualifying rounds to earn spots in the Monte Carlo Masters main draw. Each player needs to win two matches on the day to qualify. The matches are played on Court Rainier III and the surrounding courts at the Monte-Carlo Country Club.
Is qualifying day worth attending?
Yes — particularly if you want to watch tennis at close range without a full main-draw crowd. The atmosphere is relaxed, you can move between courts, and qualifying players are often ranked between 100 and 200 in the world, which still means professional tennis at a high level.
Are my seats guaranteed to be together?
Two tickets are always allocated side by side. For orders of more than two tickets, seats are arranged in pairs so no one in your group sits alone.
