Strong emotions are looming between October 27th and November 2nd, with the ATP Rolex Paris Masters 2025 taking place, the last Masters 1000 event of the year. Not only will all the participants for the ATP Finals 2025 be decided, but the world's top two players, Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner, will once again come together at the same event. We analyze their potential opponents round by round based on the order of seedings.
A week filled with tennis spectacle, excitement, calculators at work, and the widespread yearning to witness a final once again between Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner. That's what the ATP Rolex Paris Masters 2025 offers, a tournament that neither the Spaniard nor the Italian has conquered yet, for which both are considered top favorites in this edition. It's important to review the seeding order to identify potential opponents for both players in each round.
How the ATP Rolex Paris Masters 2025 Draw Will Be Organized
It is worth noting that this event brings a change compared to seven of the other eight Masters 1000 events of the season, as the draw consists of only 56 players out of 64 spots, with the top eight seeds exempt from the first round.

To become champion, one will need to win five matches starting as a seed, and six matches if not enjoying that status. It is important to note that there will be 16 seeds, unlike the 32 in the rest of the Masters 1000 events of the year, except for Monte Carlo. The draw for the ATP Rolex Paris Masters 2025 will take place this Friday, October 24th, with the exact time yet to be determined (last year it was at 7:30 PM), leaving the weekend for the qualifiers and commencing the main draw on Monday, October 27th.

Order of Seedings for the ATP Rolex Paris Masters 2025
- Carlos Alcaraz
- Jannik Sinner
- Alexander Zverev
- Taylor Fritz
- Ben Shelton
- Álex de Miñaur
- Lorenzo Musetti
- Casper Ruud
- Félix Auger-Aliassime
- Karen Khachanov
- Daniil Medvedev
- Andrey Rublev
- Alexander Bublik
- Jiri Lehecka
- Alejandro Davidovich
- Jakub Mensik
The absences of Djokovic, Draper, and Rune have led to substantial changes in the seeding order compared to the current ATP ranking, allowing Jakub Mensik, Alejandro Davidovich, and Jiri Lehecka to enjoy this status. These three, along with Bublik, stand as potential opponents in the round of 16 for Alcaraz, Sinner, Zverev, and Fritz. They all pose a reasonable threat to the favorites, equipped with enough weapons to create surprises in a setting like Paris.
As potential quarterfinal opponents for Alcaraz and Sinner, names like Shelton, De Miñaur, Musetti, and Ruud emerge. The American arrives with less rhythm and confidence, yet his serve and aggressive play are formidable indoors. The Australian, Italian, and Norwegian are likely battling for their chances to secure a spot in the ATP Finals 2025, which will give them extra motivation to push themselves.
Furthermore, in the second round, the 16 seeds will face players who have already won a match in the main draw of the ATP Rolex Paris Masters 2025. There will be prestigious names entering the tournament without being seeded, such as Cerúndolo, Cobolli, Shapovalov, Fonseca, Machac, Mpetshi-Perricard, or the two great sensations from Shanghai, Rinderknech and Vacherot, aiming to continue their positive momentum and prove that their success in China was not a fluke. Many mysteries to uncover in this tournament.
