Dominant Performance in Rotterdam

“All good things come in threes,”de Minaur joked after his final win.
“I’m totally thrilled and overjoyed. It was a great week here in Rotterdam. I always feel very comfortable here. In the past few years I’ve always narrowly missed out, so it’s a great feeling to finally win the title.”de Minaur
