One of the must-watch tennis events in April is the Monte-Carlo Masters, sponsored by Rolex, which begins on Sunday, April 6 and lasts for a week.

Taking place at Roquebrune-Cap-Martin in France, this ATP Masters 1000 event is the first of the three clay-court tournaments in the tour.

Despite the name it doesn't take place in Monaco, and is named after the club it's hosted in. This is the Monte Carlo Country Club, which is on the border of Monte Carlo in Monaco.

The defending champion is Greek player Stefanos Tsitsipas who's returning for the 2025 championship. He's not alone though with the likes of Novak Djokovic, Carlos Alcaraz and Alexander Zverev all vying for the top spot. There's also a men's doubles tournament though returning champions Sander Gille and Joran Vliegen aren't playing together (and the latter isn't in the main draw, just the alternates list).

Players will be vying for a share of the over €6 million pot, the second-highest of the month. In addition the tournament acts as a warm-up to the French Open, which falls at the end of May.

Here's how to watch the 2025 Monte-Carlo Masters online or on TV.

How to watch the 2025 Monte-Carlo Masters in the US

If you live in the US, the way to watch the Monte-Carlo Masters action is via the Tennis Channel

This cable channel is the home for tennis coverage in the US, so you could probably already guess that it was your place to go for all ATP 1000 coverage.

You can access the Tennis Channel by picking up a cable plan that includes it, or by using a live TV streaming service which lets you cut the cord and stream cable channels online.

Your cheapest option is Sling TV and you can find the current price below, though you'll need to pay $11 extra for the Sports add-on package. It's also on DirecTV if you get the Choice package or higher, and Fubo with the Elite plan.

However you watch the Tennis Channel, live coverage each day is scheduled to begin at 5 am ET/2 am PT and continue until play ends at about 1 pm ET/11 am PT. This is all via the channel's Center Court Live show.

How to watch the 2025 Monte-Carlo Masters in the UK

Tennis fans in the UK will be able to watch the 2025 Monte-Carlo Masters by using Sky Sports.

Coverage will air on the Sky Sports Tennis channel between 10 am and 6 pm (roughly, as times vary on play). It'll be interrupted at various points by coverage from other tournaments at the weekends, but mid-week it should be clearer. During the week, the coverage will sometimes also be shown live on Sky Sports Main Event.

You can watch Sky Sports by signing up for one of the Sky TV plans that include it: £35 for Essential or £42 for Ultimate. The difference between the two is that Ultimate offers more live TV channels but it doesn't affect the Sky Sports offerings.

How to watch the 2025 Monte-Carlo Masters in Australia

If you live in Australia, the way to watch the Monte-Carlo Masters is via the streaming service beIN Sports.

Play will begin at 8pm AEDT each day, and likely continue until the early hours.

BeIN Sports costs $15 per month. It's cheaper, however, to sign up for an annual plan which costs $130.
