Alex De Minaur is quite a customer on the circuit this season. After winning the title in Acapulco at the start of the year, he already has 8 victories over members of the world's top 8 (Fritz, Djokovic, Zverev, Rublev, Dimitrov, Tsitsipas, Ruud, Medvedev). After a very respectable clay-court season given his status on the surface, he has launched his grass-court season to perfection. Registered in Bois-le-Duc, he held his own very well, winning all his matches fairly comfortably.

Victorious on Sunday, overcoming Sebastian Korda, ranked 27th in the world, in the final (6-2, 6-4 in 1h35), the 25-year-old made no secret of his delight. As he reaches his career-high ranking of world No. 7 on Monday, the Australian is hungry for more. Interviewed in the press conference, he was confident and ready for battle: "I'm reaching a new peak in my career. This victory is always a nice little bonus. The first week on grass couldn't have gone any better.

I'm looking forward to what's to come with Queens and the whole grass-court season. Yes, I'm smiling and I'm ready."

"Warns competition"? Lmao. Please tell me you're trolling with this headline. It remains painfully obvious that De Minaur simply isn't a Slam contender. Hell, Alex would need a plethora of injury luck just to win a single Masters 1000 event in his career.

De Minaur, Draper, Korda, Berrettini, Darderi, Gaston - Another change in the ATP rankings!

De Minaur wins in Bois-le-Duc and leaves a lasting impression!

Alcaraz already set to follow up at Queen's

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.

What a finish this is.. I believe King has used his boost for today. Skelp is closing strong. Two wins and he claims 1st if I lose my last prediction.
