Felix Auger Aliassime
Felix Auger-Aliassime is set to face Frances Tiafoe in the quarterfinals of the Paris Masters later today
Felix Auger-Aliassime is on an incredible run on the ATP tour and even Nick Kyrgios is in awe of him. The Canadian recently became one of the few players to achieve a ‘Natural Hat-trick’ on the ATP tour in the recent past. Felix has won three tournaments in the last three weeks – Florence, Antwerp and Basel. He has become only the third player in the last decade to achieve this rare feat after Andy Murray (2011) and Casper Ruud (2021).
The World No.8 started his incredible run at the Firenze Open in Florence. He defeated J.J Wolf in the final and then clinched the European Open final against Sebastian Korda earlier this month. Felix completed his hat trick at the Swiss Indoors Open in Basel last week. He is currently playing at the Paris Masters.
It remains to be seen if Felix can make it four out of four. The No.8 seed will take on American Frances Tiafoe in the Paris Masters quarterfinals later today.
Let us take a look at how fans responded to Kyrgios’ reaction on Twitter.
“FAA and Rune balling out. Those top 10 spots gonna be crowded come 2023. Someone is falling out of the top 10 if Holger keeps balling like this”, wrote a fan.
“I think he would lose to Alcaraz in the semi final. Or to Djokovic in the final”, a fan shared his take.
“When he comes face to face with Djokovic in an official match on the tour”, wrote another fan.
“Never. He’d win all the way to the ATP Final. FAA was so good from the beginning when I saw him @ AO 2022. Thought he’d beat Med. Then he suffered lack of consistency. Now he’s back. Hopefully FAA’s consistency continues till the end of this year”, tweeted a very optimistic fan.
“Don’t jinx it Kygs, I don’t want FAA and lose in the same sentence. LET’S GOOOO”, read another tweet.
