Moselle Open Prize Money
2023 Breakdown & Historicals
One of four ATP 250 tournaments hosted in France, the Moselle Open takes place annually in Metz and is named after the famous Moselle river that meanders through the picturesque city.
During its 20-year history that began in 2003, Frenchmen have dominated the tournament, winning over 60% of the events. Past champs include Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, Gilles Simon, Lucas Pouille, and Gaël Monfils, to name a few.
As a smaller indoor tournament played on hard courts, it doesn’t boast the most impressive purse. Despite that, the event’s prize money hit an all-time high of €562,815 for 2023, translating to $601,578 and £490,220, a solid 5% over the prior year.
The tournament’s singles champion will pocket €85,605, and the runner-up will claim a check for €49,940, a 5.3% increase for both compared to 2021.
In doubles, the winning pair of the smaller 16-team doubles draw will split €29,740 and the runner-up €15,910, like singles, a 5.3% increase over last year. It’s worth noting that all rounds across the tournament, including qualifying, see percentage gains, which we’ll cover in greater detail as part of this guide.
This guide provides fans with a detailed overview and complete breakdown of the Moselle Open’s prize money and historical data for reference and quick comparison.

2023 Full Breakdown
Singles is the Moselle Open’s main event, featuring a 28-player draw compared to the 16 teams for doubles, so organizers distribute prize money accordingly. In 2022, roughly 80% of the purse supports singles, while the remaining 20% goes to doubles.
However, beyond the singles and doubles events, we can break prize money down by round to better understand earnings, with players making more money the further they progress. The following table summarizes this data over the years.
For your convenience, I’ve also converted prize money to euros and Sterling Pound, calculated using the prior year’s exchange rate on the day of the final for a close approximation of value.
