HEC Virtus Tournament

October 7th – 9th 2022

Our Story

In 2006, HEC Paris organised the first edition of its European university tennis tournament. Since then, this most prestigious event has been organised every year. After some time at the Monte-Carlo Country Club, the tournament returns to the clay court of the Roland Garros Stadium and changes its name: the HEC Clay Court Challenge becomes the HEC Virtus Tournament!

Why this change of name? This year, several members of the HEC Tennis Club and other students from the school, with the support of HEC Paris, created the association Virtus in order to organise a sports fair in parallel with the tennis tournament.
