The 26-year-old Dutch tennis player started the grass season on a high note by capturing the S'Hertogenbosch trophy. The past few months on clay were challenging for Griekspoor, as he had to retire from the Madrid Open, Rome Open, and Geneva Open in the weeks leading up to the 2023 French Open. At Roland Garros, he lost in the second round to the 13th seed Hubert Hurkacz in five sets.
Playing on home soil, Griekspoor showcased his best form and secured his second career title (both in 2023), which will propel him into the top 30 for the first time. On his path to the title, he defeated Mikael Ymer, Alexei Popyrin, Alex de Minaur, Emil Ruusuvuori, and Jordan Thompson in the final with a score of 6-7(4), 7-6(3), 6-3.

Griekspoor became the fourth Dutchman to win the tournament, following in the footsteps of Richard Krajicek (1994, 1997), Sjeng Schalken (2002, 2003), and Tim van Rijthoven (2022). He also became the first player from his country to win more than one title in the same year, a feat that hadn't been achieved since Schalken won two trophies in 2003.
The newly crowned world No. 29 will be competing in the ATP 500 Halle Open this week, and he will make his debut on Tuesday against Roberto Carballés Baena.
