De Minaur Maintaining Strong Early-Season Form
Top seed Alex de Minaur faced his first real test of the week in the quarterfinals but handled it well, overcoming a strong showing from local favorite Botic Van De Zandschulp.
It has been a solid start to the season for the Aussie, who has won nine of his first 11 matches. Both defeats came against top-20 opponents only, Casper Ruud at the United Cup and Carlos Alcaraz at the Australian Open.
De Minaur enjoyed a strong indoor season last year, and this Rotterdam run continues that trend. He reached at least the semifinal in three of four indoor events, with all of his losses coming against top-20 players only.

Humbert Building Momentum In Rotterdam
Ugo Humbert faced his toughest test in the opening round, edging past former champion Daniil Medvedev in a tight three-set battle. Since then, his path has been smoother, with straight-set wins over Guido Pella and Christopher O’Connell.
The Frenchman also enjoyed an excellent indoor season last year, reaching the semifinals in all three events he played. He went on to win the title in Marseille and finished runner-up in Stockholm, underlining his comfort on indoor courts.
This is his second semifinal of the season after reaching the same stage in Adelaide last month. Another deep run here would set a strong, positive tone for the rest of his year.
