Tim Henman was the defending champion but he lost in the third round to Mikhail Youzhny. Marat Safin won the title for the then record 3rd time, defeating Radek Štěpánek in the final in straight sets. Safin thus became the first man to win the two final Masters events back-to-back, having won the Madrid Masters the week before.
