Rolex Paris Masters 2026: Wild cards revealed
Discover the players who have received wild cards for the 2026 edition of the Rolex Paris Masters.
From 31 October to 8 November, the Plenitude Arena will host the stars of the ATP Tour for the second time in its history. Inside Europe’s largest indoor arena, the stakes will be high, whether in the race for the Fanti Tree trophy or the battle for a place at the ATP Finals in Turin.
As the Rolex Paris Masters celebrates its 40th anniversary, the French contingent will also be eager to shine and follow in the footsteps of Guy Forget (1991), Sébastien Grosjean (2001) and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga (2008) as home champions. And they will be well represented throughout the tournament following the allocation of wild cards proposed by FFT president Gilles Moretton and Rolex Paris Masters tournament director Cédric Pioline.
