Players to Watch
Felix Auger-Aliassime
Auger-Aliassime arrives in Rosmalen in excellent form after reaching the quarterfinals of the French Open. The Canadian has a proven grass-court pedigree and possesses the serve and attacking game required to thrive in these conditions. Having never gone beyond the semifinals here, he will be eager to finally make a title run.
Alex de Minaur
De Minaur has become one of the most consistent grass-court performers on the ATP Tour and lifted the title here in 2024. The Australian has struggled for confidence in recent weeks but returns to a venue where he has enjoyed great success. His familiarity with the conditions makes him a dangerous contender.
Daniil Medvedev
Medvedev reached the final in Rosmalen in 2022 and has produced several strong results on grass throughout his career. His flat groundstrokes and serving ability are well suited to the quick conditions. The former world No. 1 will be targeting a deep run as he begins his Wimbledon preparations.
Gabriel Diallo
Diallo stunned the field by winning the title on his tournament debut last year. However, the Canadian arrives this time with just six wins from 19 matches in 2026 and ongoing concerns over form and fitness. Defending champion status brings added pressure, making him one of the more intriguing players in the draw.
Tallon Griekspoor
Griekspoor remains the leading Dutch hope and a former champion at this event. Recent results have been disappointing, but returning to familiar surroundings and playing in front of home fans could help spark a revival. His grass-court pedigree and local support make him a player worth watching.
