Vienna Open final: Alcaraz beats De Minaur 6–1, 6–4

Carlos Alcaraz defeated Alex de Minaur 6–1, 6–4 in the Vienna Open final on 1 November 2026. It was Alcaraz’s fourth title of 2026 and 28th of his career. The second-seeded Spaniard denied the fifth-seeded Australian his second title of the year.

Alcaraz’s season already included the Australian Open, where he completed a career Grand Slam—winning each of tennis’s four major tournaments during his career.

How Alcaraz finished the final

The Associated Press account published by ESPN describes a championship point that took De Minaur forward and then back. Alcaraz drew him toward the net with a sliced backhand drop shot—a softly struck ball that lands close to the net. When De Minaur reached it, Alcaraz sent a backhand lob over him. De Minaur volleyed the ball back near the net, but Alcaraz finished with a cross-court forehand that landed just inside the court.

Alcaraz now has 7 wins without a defeat against De Minaur, with victories on grass, clay and both indoor and outdoor hard courts.

Their earlier finals included Queen’s Club in 2023, where Alcaraz won his first grass-court title, and Rotterdam in 2025, where he won his first indoor hard-court title.
