A new chapter for the Rolex Paris Masters: the courts in Nanterre almost ready to welcome the stars

With just days to go before the start of the qualifying rounds, work is in full swing at Paris La Défense Arena. The Rolex Paris Masters courts are taking shape, promising a spectacular edition in a brand-new setting.
The Rolex Paris Masters will undergo a major change this year. After 38 editions (since its inception in 1986) held at the Bercy venue, the Masters 1000 is moving to Nanterre, at Paris La Défense Arena.
This change will notably allow for three additional courts (two used for the main draw, three for the qualifiers) and to meet the standards imposed by the ATP.
With six days to go before the start of the qualifiers, the construction of the courts is progressing (see post below). They will, as every year since 2017, be green and gray.
The center court can accommodate up to 17,500 spectators (a record for indoor events), while courts No. 1 and No. 2 will have a capacity of 4,000 seats.
