The Paris Masters, known as the Rolex Paris Masters for sponsorship reasons (formerly the BNP Paribas Masters, Paris Open), is an annual indoor tennis tournament for male professional players held in Nanterre, France, a western suburb of Paris, at La Défense Arena, and is held in early November. It is part of the ATP Masters 1000 events on the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) Tour. The tournament evolved from the French Covered Court Championships. Beginning with the Open Era, it was held at the Stade Pierre de Coubertin until 1982.[2] In 1989 it was upgraded to the Grand Prix Tour (Grand Prix Super Series). The event is usually the final tournament on the calendar before the season-ending ATP Finals. For sponsorship reasons, the event was officially known from 2003 to 2016 as BNP Paribas Masters, and from 2017 has been called the Rolex Paris Masters. When it was held at Accor Arena in the Bercy neighborhood of Paris, the event was often referred to as the Paris Indoor event and as Bercy to distinguish it from the other significant tennis tournament held in Paris, the French Open, which is held outdoors in the 16th arrondissement of Paris. In 2025, the event was moved out of Bercy to the La Défense suburb west of Paris.

It is the last of the top nine tournaments to be held indoors. The surface used to be one of the fastest courts in the world which rewarded bold attacking tennis, but since 2011 it has followed the general slow-down of most courts on the tour.[3] Ilie Năstase, Andre Agassi, Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic are the only singles players to have won both Parisian tournaments (Bercy and the French Open). Năstase, Agassi and Djokovic are the only three to win the double in a season, with Djokovic doing so twice.[4][5] Djokovic is also the most successful singles player in the tournament's history with seven titles, and is the only player to defend the title (2013–2015).
