The traditional Press Conference of the Masters Series Monte-Carlo, presented by Rolex, took place on Wednesday, March 8, in Paris, only a few days after the publication of the player's list who have automatically registered.

Zeljko Franulovic, the tournament director, also introduced the main highlights of the event that will be marked by the celebrations for the 100th edition of the Masters Series Monte-Carlo.

Together with the participation of ROLEX, who had been announced during the Conference in Monaco, and the renewal of BNP Paribas, Franulovic also confirmed the participation of LANCASTER for the 2006 edition.

The conference's, chosen by the organizers, was held at an unusual location. For the first time ever, the conference took place on a boat on the Seine with a fabulous view on the Eiffel Tour.

This original idea, together with the friendliness of the participants, delighted the 50 journalists and sponsors who attended.
