Tallon Griekspoor claimed his second title of the season when he came from a set down to defeat Jordan Thompson in the 's-Hertogenbosch grass court final on Sunday.
The 38th-ranked Dutchman came through 6-7 (4/7), 7-6 (7/3), 6-3 after two hours and 37 minutes against number 103 Thompson of Australia.
Griekspoor, 26, had also won the Pune hard court title in India at the start of the year.
He is the second successive homegrown champion at the Wimbledon warm-up event after Tim van Rijthoven upset Daniil Medvedev in the 2022 final.
