This morning, July 28, Washington Open 2-25 entered the last day of competition. Accordingly, the men's singles final is the competition between Alex De Minaur and Alejandro Davidovich Fokina.
The match begins with the struggle, when both of them won the break in the first set. But it was Davidovich Fokina who kept calm to close Set 1 with a score of 7-5. However, De Minaur has gained strongly, overwhelming 6-1 in the set after only 30 minutes of competition. In particular, he took advantage of 2/4 opportunities to break the game.
Set Ba witnessed the script leaning towards Davidovich Fokina when he led 5-3 and held the serve at the point of 30-0. The Spanish tennis player is only 2 points away from the first ATP title. However, the utopian script happened.
De Minaur rises strongly and pulls the match into the tie-break series. Here, the Australian tennis player took advantage of the opponent's self-damage errors, and saved Ba Match Point to win the choking 7-3.
In the end, De Minaur defeated Davidovich Fokina with a score of 5-7, 6-1, 7-6 (3) after 3 hours 3 minutes of competition. This result helps the Australian player officially crowned at Washington Open 2025. This is also the 10th ATP title in his career.
Sharing after the match, De Minaur said: “I have come here in 2018 and that tournament has brought me a lot of confidence. Therefore, I am really happy when I come back this time and win the championship.”
De Minaur also devoted emotional comfort to Davidovich Fokina: “Alejandro, you are very good, and really regret that you don't have any title.
This was the second time in 2025, Davidovich Fokina lost to the final despite the Championship Point. In February, he also failed in the final of Delray Beach (ATP 250) against Miomir Kecmanovic despite having two championships in his hand. With this defeat, the achievement in his ATP finals is currently 0 win – 4 losses.
