The Rolex Paris Masters concluded with a significant final match between Ugo Humbert and Alexander Zverev at the Accor Arena, marking the end of an era for the venue after 38 years of hosting tennis events. Despite Humbert's hopes of becoming the first Frenchman to win the tournament since 2008, Zverev dominated the match, securing a decisive victory with a score of 6-2, 6-2. This win not only adds to Zverev's impressive record, bringing his total to seven Masters 1000 titles, but also sets the stage for the tournament's relocation to Paris La Défense Arena in 2025. The final was attended by notable figures including French rugby star Antoine Dupont and Olympic champion Florent Manaudou, who witnessed the historic moment as the last match was played at the Accor Arena.
