Felix served 13 aces, converted three break points and did not lose a single game on his serve in the match against the Hungarian. For the Canadian, this was the fifth victory in eight indoor matches this season.
Professional qualities
Auger-Aliassime is a shining example of aggressive tennis, where the key role is given to the serve. The combination of a powerful serve and forehand makes his game especially dangerous. This season, the Canadian has focused on improving his serve, which has brought him success even on clay, but now the effectiveness of his serve has decreased, and straightforwardness in long rallies remains his weak point.
