Monte Carlo Country Club, Tennis club in Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, France
Monte Carlo Country Club is a tennis club in Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, France, just outside Monaco. It has 21 red clay courts and 2 acrylic courts arranged on terraced levels, with a show court surrounded by blue and green seating and a green barrier marked "RADIO MONTE CARLO".
The club was founded in the early 20th century and has hosted the Monte-Carlo Masters for many decades. Over time it grew into a major tennis center, adding facilities and seating while keeping its position on the hillside.
The club is closely tied to the Monte-Carlo Masters, and during the tournament the terraced seating fills with spectators who come to watch top players on the red clay. The green barrier with the radio inscription is a familiar backdrop in broadcasts of the event.
The site sits on a slope beside the sea, so expect some walking between levels and wear shoes suited to clay. The grounds are private, but the outside of the courts can be seen from the surrounding streets.
Despite its name, the club lies entirely in France, about 150 meters from the Monaco border. It also offers facilities beyond tennis, such as a heated pool, squash courts, and a golf practice area.
