The Grand Prix Hassan II is an ATP 250 tournament held on clay courts and the only one in Africa during the season, which began in 1984 as an ATP Challenger before being upgraded to an ATP tournament in 1990.

The event occurs at the Royal Tennis Club de Marrakech in Marrakech, Morocco, and is bankrolled entirely by the country’s King, Mohammed VI. Despite his financial backing, the event’s name still corresponds with his predecessor’s name, King Hassan II.

For 2023, the tournament’s total prize money is €630,705, the largest purse in its history, equating to $687,559 and £551,854. These sums represent an 18% bump over the prior year.

In singles, the champion will take home a check for €85,605, while the runner-up will claim roughly 60% of that or €49,940. In both cases, these sums are 5.3% improvements in earnings over 2022.

For the doubles event, the winning team will share €29,740, while the runner-up team will split €15,910. Like singles, these amounts represent 5.3% bumps versus last year.

In the following sections, I’ll provide a detailed overview and complete breakdown of the Grand Prix Hassan II’s prize money, historical data for quick reference, and currency conversions for your convenience.

2023 Full Breakdown

Taking a step back, we can break down prize money at the Grand Prix Hassan II by event, where 80% of the purse funds 28-player singles draw, and the remaining 20% goes to the smaller 16-team doubles draw.

However, prize money breaks down further by discipline, with players and teams earning more as they progress in singles and doubles. For example, the singles player who wins the tournament will make 14 times more than a player who exits in the first round.

The following tables showcase prize money by round per year to help visualize this breakdown, and you can scroll left to right to view historical numbers. I’ve also converted prize money to euros and sterling pounds, which I calculate using the prior year’s exchange rate on the day of the final for a close approximation of value.
