As a result, he moved close to 40 positions up to a new career-high singles ranking of world No. 64, on 22 May 2023.[16][17] As the second qualifying seed, he entered the main draw of the 2023 French Open as a lucky loser and defeated Thiago Monteiro in the first round in five sets for his first win at this major.

At his home tournament, the Halle Open, he reached the second round as a wildcard defeating compatriot Louis Wessels.
