Alex de Minaur vs Stefanos Tsitsipas ATP Washington Tips, Prediction & Live Stream
Alex de Minaur is the defending champion in Washington, but has a daunting 1-12 record against Stefanos Tsitsipas, who might just be in a career resurgence after a coaching switch and recent title - I'm backing the Greek to continue his dominance over the Aussie in one of the standout opening round matches on Tuesday.
There's not many more dominant H2Hs on tour at the moment than Tsitsipas winning 12 of his 13 previous meetings with De Minaur. Additionally, nine of those victories have come in straight sets. Stylistically, Tsitsipas just loves this matchup, where his aggressive game is just too much for the Aussie to handle.
Obviously the Greek has been well below his best over the last few years, but there's signs he could be about to turn things around. Indeed, Tsitsipas has finally split with his father as coach, which was all kinds of toxic, linking up with Thomas Perrin from the Mouratoglou Academy after Wimbledon.
The move paid immediate dividends, with Tsitsipas winning the Gstaad title a couple of weeks ago - meaning he's now won at least one ATP title every year since 2018.
De Minaur meanwhile also hasn't been at his best, but has maintained a spot inside the top 10 and even hit a career-high No. 5 in the world, even if his form didn't really warrant it.
Newly married after Wimbledon, de Minaur will be hoping to get back to his best tennis after saving multiple championship points to win last year's Washington title over Alejandro Davidovich Fokina.
But I just can't ignore this matchup. H2H matters in individual sports like tennis, especially longstanding one like this. With Tsitsipas back in a good place with his tennis, the Greek looks good for another win over the Aussie in the American capital.

Alex de Minaur Form Analysis
- 2026 ATP Record: 27-14
- ATP Washington Record: 9-4
- Current Ranking: No. 6
- Career-High Ranking: No. 5 (July 2026)
Although he's hit a career-high ranking of No. 5, it's not been a great year for de Minaur and he's spoken of how he's really struggling with his tennis and motivation after several heartbreaking defeats.
Perhaps tying the knot with Katie Boulter will give de Minaur a new outlook on his tennis after he missed another golden opportunity to go deep at a slam, going down to Flavio Cobolli in straight sets in the R16 of Wimbledon.
De Minaur also crashed out to Jakub Mensik in the third round of Roland Garros, while a defeat in the final of Hertogenbosch to Kamil Majchrzak and quarter-final exit to Brandon Nakashima at Queens were also disappointing.
The 27-year-old will be hoping a return to Washington will spark a return to his best tennis after he pulled off a miraculous title triumph last year, saving multiple championship points against Davidovich Fokina in the final.
Stefanos Tsitsipas Form Analysis
- 2026 ATP Record: 22-15
- ATP Washington Record: 6-2
- Current Ranking: No. 51
- Career-High Ranking: No. 3 (2021)
For all of his struggles, Tsitsipas has only won five less matches than De Minaur in 2026, so he's maybe not that far from returning to the top of the game than most think.
The Greek has endured a tumultuous coaching relationship with his father for many years now and the pair finally called it a day after a second round loss at Wimbledon to Novak Djokovic.
Now working with Thomas Perrin, Tsitsipas has a new lease on his tennis life, winning his 13th ATP title in Gstaad a couple of weeks ago, showcasing superb fight to win four of his five matches in a deciding set.
Tsitsipas has consistently stepped up against elite players, going 2-1 against top 10 and 4-5 vs the top 20, so it's his motivation in the smaller tournaments against lesser names that's been holding him back.
Tsitsipas is playing in Washington for the first time since making back-to-back semi-finals in 2018-19.
