The 2023 Monte-Carlo Masters is the first ATP Masters 1000 tournament on the calendar, and the prize money details for the event have been released.
This prestigious event will take place at the Monte-Carlo Country Club from April 9th to 16th, with a total prize money of €5,779,335 on offer. The entry list for this tournament is full of stars, and all of the players participating will want to take their share of the prize money.
Defending champion Stefanos Tsitsipas will want to win his third consecutive title. Rafael Nadal, who is often called the 'King of Clay,' withdrew from the tournament, and he was followed by his compatriot Carlos Alcaraz shortly after, significantly weakening the field for the 2023 Monte-Carlo Masters.
Still, the Greek player will face some of the best players in the world, as another former champion, Novak Djokovic, will also make his return to the tournament.
Djokovic won two Monte-Carlo Masters trophies before, and after being forced to miss out on the Sunshine Double, he will be eager to add wins to his resume in Monte Carlo.
All of them will be fighting for the top prize of 1,000 points and 892,590€ for the champion, which the Greek player collected for the past two seasons. The prize for the runner-up is also reasonable, as they will receive 600 points and 487,420€.
Everyone at the 2023 Monte-Carlo Masters will be rewarded, as the prize money starts at 23,100€ and 10 points for the first-round exit, but the likes of Alexander Zverev, Andrey Rublev, Casper Ruud, and Daniil Medvedev will surely be targeting much higher.
The prize for semifinalists is 266,530€ and 360 points, while all four beaten quarterfinalists will get 180 points and 145,380€. Those who lose in the third round of the tournament will get 90 ATP ranking points and 77,760€.
Making it to the second round will certainly pay off for the lower ranked players, as the gap between a first-round and second-round exit is quite significant. For losing in the second round, players will get 45 points and 41,700€.
