Felix Auger-Aliassime was 14 years old when Guillaume Marx started coaching him, and Marx’s most prominent appearance on the young Montreal stars was not the monster serving, but the incredible speed or a big forehand, although these were obvious weapons.
“He has a strong will,” Marx said. “If he had a game, he believed he could win. He went all out. It was the most impressive aspect for me.”
The will, beliefs and “all” attitude of Canadians have certainly left a deep impression on everyone and can be seen by everyone. In the final week of the U.S. Open, Olympian Aliassime frustrated the world No. 3, 8 and 15, and four years after he first got there, he returned to the Grand Slam semifinals.
The 25-year-old is now two wins from his first Grand Slam title, and he has the biggest test. At 7 p.m. ET, Auger-Aliassime faced the world’s No. 1 and defended the finals for U.S. Open champion Jannis Sinner.
The last time auger-aliassime was lost, that was a sinner. Three weeks ago, the Italian easily beat him in the quarterfinals of the 1000 Cincinnati Masters to a 6-0, 6-2 tune. In that game, Auger-Aliassime showed a fight in the game, breaking the Sinners in the opening service of the second set and winning his serve percentage to lead 2-0, but that’s all he can get from the Sinners.
The Global 27 Propeller recorded zero ACE and eight doubles and made 28 unmandatory mistakes in that game. If all these numbers are to shoot at sinners, it will take a big change to the time.
“He needs to serve well, and it’s his number one weapon. If he doesn’t work hard, I can’t see a good game and then have to kick a lot of balls out of his game and keep rallies in his own game, it’s going to be difficult,” Marx said. “He obviously has to play a great game, but especially first, he needs to be able to keep serving in the scene and go deep and see if he has a chance.”
The sinner broke into the gate at the last meeting, which laid the foundation for failure. “I think that puts a lot of pressure on the whole game after that, because it’s Felix’s power, his serve,” Marx said. “If your first power doesn’t perform, you won’t be able to beat the number one person in the world.”
Auger-Aliassime’s serving has been well done so far in the Arthur Ashe Stadium. On Wednesday afternoon, he noted in an interview after the post-match interview that “it’s not very beautiful” (he has 50 unmandatory mistakes), but it’s similar at some point. The Canadians won 22 ACEs and 51 titles in four match wins, which made him retreat after putting down his first set.
“He’s already shown fighting, and I think he’s about to play in the next game with confidence that he can take advantage of the situation of the game – if he has a door that opens, he’ll be able to go through that door,” Marx explained. “Obviously, he’s playing an incredible player and that won’t open the door, but if that happens, it’s (Auger-Aliassime) is playing in the last three games and he’ll take advantage of it.”
The Sinners ran to the semifinals with the edge and scored a 26-game streak in the tough Grand Slam. Sinner only re-entered U.S. Open championships in New York, a match against Canada’s Denis Shapovalov. The 24-year-old sinner is a 20-time champion on the ATP Tour and already has four Grand Slam titles.
With his first bounce-Aliassime fighting, the former world No. 6 season was injured and shaken by confidence. He was underperforming in big matches of the season before the U.S. Open – he didn’t surpass the second round in any other Grand Slam and lost the opening game at the National Bank Open in July, but overall it was excellent. Auger-Aliassime won two wins in the ATP 250 event in January, and Friday will be his eighth semifinal of the season.
“He hasn’t been great since the beginning of the year because he hasn’t performed well in very big games, but he has been in the top 1 in the (PIF ATP Live Race to Tuin) rankings, so I think it’s building his confidence throughout the season.”
Auger-Aliassime is now 10Th In the ATP rankings, the top seven months in July are eligible to compete in the November ATP final, the highest-ranked season event.
Auger-Aliassime, a seven-time winner of the ATP, is winning one of one of the season’s goals, which is back in the world’s top ten. He ranks 27th in New York.Th So far, his performance has risen to No. 13 due to his performance, higher than he has been in more than two years. “I believe he can achieve his goals,” Marx said.
Never had the Canadian man win the U.S. Open. In Marx’s mind, Ouger-Aliassime has the skills to make history.
“We know that it’s a great fun to play at a very high level and see that level get back to the semifinals,” he said. “We know he can do that, and he hasn’t done that in a while, so it’s great for him to show what he can do.”
Oslime – Aliassime always thought he could win the game, and Marx believed that Canadians were no different for Canadians because he would be ranked No. 1 in the world.
“He’s doing very well,” Marx said. “I don’t think he needs to lose anything, their mindset if there is an opportunity.”
After his final victory against Arthur Ashe, Auger-Aliassime smiled in the middle of the courtroom and said, “The biggest challenge has not yet come, this is my life.”
Next is the opportunity to be the world’s number one and the first Canadian man to become the Canadian Open final.
