Tsitsipas' wild card comes one day after world No. 1 and reigning Rotterdam champion Jannik Sinner withdrew from the event to rest after his run to his second straight Australian Open championship on Sunday in Melbourne.
The Tsitsipas Rotterdam return comes eight years after Krajicek awarded a then world No. 205 Tsitsipas a Rotterdam wild card.
World No. 13 Tsitsipas reached the Rotterdam semifinals in 2021, the tournament final in 2022 and lost to Sinner in the round of 16 in his most recent appearance in 2023.
