Alex de Minaur captured his 11th ATP title at the Rotterdam Open, defeating 2022 champion Felix Auger-Aliassime 6-3, 6-2 in straight sets. The Australian's victory marked his third consecutive final appearance in the Dutch tournament, having previously lost to Jannik Sinner in 2024 and Carlos Alcaraz in 2025.

For Auger-Aliassime, it was his third Rotterdam final as well, having won the title in 2020 against Gael Monfils and in 2022 against Stefanos Tsitsipas. The match showcased de Minaur's persistence and growth, as he converted his third opportunity to claim the Rotterdam crown after two previous runner-up finishes.

De Minaur's triumph represents his first ATP title since the 2025 Washington Open, ending a drought of over a year. The victory underscores his consistency on hard courts and ability to perform under pressure, particularly in a tournament where he had twice fallen short in finals. At 26 years old, the Australian continues to establish himself among tennis's elite players.
