   One year after losing a tight Antwerp semifinal to Murray, an unseeded Humbert [38] won the title. There was only one moment when the 3rd set seemed plausible, as De Minaur [29] led 4:3* (30/0) in the 2nd set. “It is one of my biggest wins,” said Humbert. “I am super happy to win my second title this year against a really great player. I was aggressive like the previous matches and I am super happy to do it.”

   Humbert’s route to his 2nd title:
   1 Kimmer Coppejans 6-4, 6-3
   2 Pablo Carreno Busta 5-7, 6-3, 6-4
   Q Lloyd Harris 6-3, 7-6(2)
   S Dan Evans 4-6, 7-6(7), 6-4 – 4 m.p.
   W Alex de Minaur 6-1, 7-6(4)

   Serve & volley: Humbert 1/1, De Minaur 0

   # Humbert escaped twice from 0/40 against Carreno (at 2-all in 2nd & 2:3 in 3rd);
   against Evans he fought off a triple MP in the tie-break, the first MP he saved with a backhand winner that landed on the sideline
