De Minaur Wins Washington Citi Open Final

Alex de Minaur won his first title of 2025 and 10th career tour-level singles title by defeating Alejandro Davidovich Fokina in a dramatic three-set final at the Washington Citi Open, saving three match points to secure victory. Davidovich Fokina, who has now lost three finals in 2025, was consoled by de Minaur after the match in a notable display of sportsmanship. De Minaur's triumph capped a strong week and returned him to the ATP top 10, reinforcing his status as the season's hard-court leader. Both finalists overcame challenging paths, with de Minaur defeating Corentin Moutet in the semifinals and Davidovich Fokina beating Taylor Fritz and Ben Shelton. Moutet's unexpected run as a lucky loser, including an upset over Daniil Medvedev, was a tournament highlight. De Minaur continues to excel on the ATP 500 circuit since 2023.
