Who Won Here Last Year?

Former World No.1 Novak Djokovic won his 6th Rolex Paris Masters here last year after putting Russia’s Daniil Medvedev to the sword 4-6, 6-3, 6-3. Medvedev, who was the defending champion, fell after going a set up to the Serb.

Who’s Been Most Dominant In Paris?

Novak Djokovic has exercised tennis supremacy here since 2009 and has won 6 Paris Masters. Djokovic beat Gael Monfils here in 2009 6-2, 5-7, 7-6, beat David Ferrer in straight sets 7-5, 7-5 in 2013, defended his title in 2014 as he pummeled Milos Ranic 6-2, 6-3.

The Serb won the title a third time in a row 6-2, 6-4 against former Wimbledon winner Andy Murray in 2015, put Canadian Denis Shapovalov to the sword in 2019 beating him 6-2, 6-4 before finally adding a sixth title to his trophy cabinet against Daniil Medvedev last year.

Notable Paris Masters Champions

  • Andy Murray won his first Paris Masters title back in 2016 – where he overpowered the towering American John Isner, winning 6-3, 6-7, 6-4.
  • Jo-Wilfried Tsonga emerged victoriously on home soil in 2008 when wasted no time dispatching David Nalbandian 6-3, 4-6, 6-4 in front of a partisan crowd in Paris to earn his first Paris Masters title. 
  • Jack Sock came from a set down at the Paris Masters in 2017 chalking up a 5-7, 6-4,6-4 victory against Filip Krajinovic.
