You deserved this title, I got lucky," says de Minaur to Davidovich Fokina
Alejandro Davidovich Fokina fell short again this Sunday, marking his 4th defeat in an ATP tournament final. In Washington, the Spaniard was beaten by Alex de Minaur despite holding 3 match points.
For now, he joins the list of 4 players—alongside Jerzy Janowicz, Hyeon Chung, and Henrik Holm—who have reached the Top 20 without winning a single ATP title.
During his trophy ceremony speech, de Minaur admitted: "Alejandro, you’re too good not to win a title. It’s going to happen.
Today, you deserved it—I was the lucky one. You’re an incredible competitor and an incredible player.
No one on tour wants to face you. This isn’t over yet!
