LONDON (AP) — Seventh-seeded Francisco Cerundolo of Argentina beat former champion Tommy Paul to win the Queen’s final 6-7 (4), 6-4, 6-3 on Sunday.
Cerundolo won on his fifth match point at Andy Murray Arena to clinch his second title this year, the second of his career on grass — after Eastbourne in 2023 — and his fifth overall.
Paul, the 2024 champion, was seeded No. 8 and chasing a sixth career title. He lost for the sixth time in eight meetings with Cerundolo.
