Player Field: Who to Watch
The 2026 acceptance list features a heavy-hitting lineup, headlined by defending champion Felix Auger-Aliassime and a deep pool of French talent looking to reclaim the title on home soil.
Top Seeds & Contenders:
- Felix Auger-Aliassime (CAN): The World No. 8 and top seed returns as the defending champion. Known for his indoor prowess, “King Felix” is the man to beat in Montpellier.
- Flavio Cobolli (ITA): The second seed and a rising star in the Top 30, Cobolli brings intensity and a high-energy baseline game to the Sud de France Arena.
- Tomas Machac (CZE): Seeded third, Machac is one of 2026’s early success stories, having already captured a title in Adelaide this January.
- Tallon Griekspoor (NED): The Dutch No. 1 enters as the fourth seed, looking to find his rhythm and add another indoor trophy to his mantle.
- Ugo Humbert (FRA): As the fifth seed and highest-ranked Frenchman, Humbert thrives under the roof. He is arguably the local favorite to lift the trophy.
- Arthur Fils (FRA): The sixth seed makes a highly anticipated return to competitive action this week. Despite a recent injury layoff, his explosive power makes him a “dangerous floater.”
Other Notable Entries:
- Hubert Hurkacz (POL): The seventh seed is a perennial threat on fast courts with his massive serve.
- Aleksandar Kovacevic (USA): The 2025 runner-up returns as the eighth seed, aiming to go one better after his narrow defeat in last year’s final.
