August 05, (THEWILL) – In an early Sunday final, Greek tennis star, Stefanos Tsitsipas, emerged victorious at the ATP Mexico Open, claiming his first title in 14 months.
The world number five defeated Australian fifth seed, Alex de Minaur, with a solid 6-3, 6-4 performance on the outdoor hardcourt. This marks Tsitsipas’ 10th career title and his first since last year’s triumph in Mallorca.
Throughout the match, Tsitsipas was at his finest, moving to an impressive 10-0 all-time record against de Minaur. After a closely fought battle, Tsitsipas sealed the deal with a blistering forehand winner, delighting fans with his stunning performance. “It was a great match,” he said in post-match comments, “I’m really happy we were able to deliver a great quality in the final match.”
This victory not only adds another trophy to Tsitsipas’ collection but also boosts his confidence after reaching the Australian Open final earlier this year. As for de Minaur, while he missed out on the Mexico double, his consistent form and multiple final appearances demonstrate his determination and skill.
As the tennis season continues, both players will undoubtedly be ones to watch on the court where tough challengers to the efficiency of Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz are looking scarce at the moment.
