Tie breaks were used for the first two sets of each match, which was the best of three sets. If the score was tied at one set all, a "champions tie break" (the first player to win at least 10 points or by a margin of two points) would be used.

Sergi Bruguera successfully defended his title by defeating Jordi Arrese 4–6, 6–1, [10–2] in an all-Spaniard final.[1] Cédric Pioline took the third place.
