Money and points earned by Alcaraz, Musetti, Fils and Djokovic at Monte Carlo Masters
Carlos Alcaraz was the big winner at the 2025 Monte Carlo Masters as he won the ATP Masters 1000 title for the first time, but how much money and how many points did he receive for his efforts?
Playing at the Monte Carlo event for only the second time in his career, Alcaraz defeated first-time Masters finalist Lorenzo Musetti 3–6, 6–1, 6–0 to win the title.
The four-time Grand Slam winner has struggled in recent weeks as he failed to defend his Indian Wells Open trophy, losing in the semi-finals before being shocked by David Goffin in the second round of the Miami Open.
But the Spaniard has learned some valuable lessons in recent weeks.
“A lot of people have really high expectations on me, on having a really good clay season. Probably they want me to win almost every tournament, so it’s [going to] be difficult to deal with it, I guess,” he stated.
“But one thing that I learned the last month is I have to think about myself. I have to think about myself. I have to just think about my people, my team, my family, my friends, my close friends.
“No matter what happens on court — if I win, if I lose — I just have to leave the court happy. I’m proud about everything I have done. So that’s something that I learned, and I think I did it this week and it paid off.”
It certainly paid off in terms of ranking points and money earned for the 21-year-old.
ATP Points Earned
ATP Masters 1000 winners earn 1,000 points and there is good news for Alcaraz as he left with the full haul of points as he didn’t participate last year, resulting in a return to No 2 in the ATP Rankings.
In case you didn’t know, players have to defend their points from the previous year so although they “earn” X points for this year’s run, they also drop points from last year’s result.
