History
The event was first held in 1993. It was the project of ex-professional tennis player and native of Marseille Jean-François Caujolle, who remains tournament director to this day.
The Swiss player Marc Rosset won the singles title at the first two editions of the event in 1993 and 1994. He also won it for a 3rd time in 2000. The Swede Thomas Enqvist is so far the only other player to win the title 3 times, doing so in 1997, 1998 and 2002.
