six days before, Felix Auger-Aliassime lifted the ATP 500 trophy in Basel, defeating the Danish 6-3 and 7-5 Holger Rune. The Canadian kept his undefeated streak alive for sixteen matches. The account stopped with his reunion with Rune, who secured victory in Paris-Bercy winning 6-4 and 6-2 in 1h.27′.
Recital by Rune, 19 years old and number 18 in the world (he will rise to at least twelfth place in the ranking).

First Masters 1000 ATP final for Rune, who reached the final day of his last four tournaments. Champion in Stockholm, finalist in Sofia and Basel. This Sunday, at 3:00 pm, he will fight again for another title, against the Serbian Novak Djokovic or the greek Stefanos Tsitsipas.
Rune dictated the game with determination and inspiration from his first set the day before the match Carlos Alcarazwho then leveled the contest until retiring due to an abdominal injury in the tiebreak for second.
He did not give a single ‘break’ option to an Auger-Aliassime, shocked and accused efforts that led him to succeed immediately in Florence, Antwerp and Baselqualifying for the ATP Finals in Turin.
Rune won in hits, 20 wins, and saved errors, 14, for the student’s 24 Frederic Fontang and Toni Nadal which added 16 winners.
Auger-Aliassime rediscovered the defeat, which he had not known since the beginning of October at the hands of Robert Baptist in Astana ATP.
Rune have continued to add to their tally from this part of the campaign, winning 18 of their last 20 meetings. In Paris he cleared four top-10s: Hubert Hurkacz, Andrey Rublev, Carlos Alcaraz, and Auger-Aliassime. He debuted with a loss to Stan Wawrinka, who recommended that he stop behaving like a baby on the track. A bit cheeky, his tennis is gaining popularity with a certain cheeky attitude.
