The Rome Masters (officially: Internazionali BNL d'Italia or until 2001 Italian Open ) is the fifth tennis tournament of the 1990 ATP Masters 1000 Series in the men's tournament calendar . Since the 2011 season it is the last of the three Masters tournaments to be played on clay. The tournament was held for the first time in 1930 and is therefore one of the oldest tennis tournaments still held today. For the first few years it took place in Milan until it moved to Rome in 1934 to the Foro Italico , a sports complex built under Mussolini . The "Stadio del tennis di Roma" was renovated in 2010 and now offers 10,400 seats.

The record winner of the event is Spaniard Rafael Nadal (2005–2007, 2009, 2010, 2012, 2013, 2018 and 2019) with nine titles . The Australian Neale Fraser is the record winner in doubles ; he won six times in the late 1950s and 1960s. In the Open Era , the American-Mexican duo Brian Gottfried and Raúl Ramírez as well as Bob and Mike Bryan and Daniel Nestor won the most frequently with four titles each in doubles.
