The sinner created the story while sailing on a difficult round of 16 competitions against Adrian Mannarino. Meanwhile, Auger-Aliassime beat Benjamin Bonzi in two sets.

The match is particularly interesting because of their head-to-head record. Sinner failed to defeat Auger-Aliassime during their two previous meetings.

In 2022, the pair faced the opening of Cincinnati. The Canadian came out victorious and discussed his opponent’s match after the match.

Felix Auger-Aliassime said that Jannik Sinner was “too good” for a whole and a half

During his interview on the field with Tennis TV, Auger-Aliassime noted that the high-level sinner played during the first half of the match.

The Canadian said, “Jannik was just playing too well. I didn’t have an excellent start, I missed a lot, but I didn’t have time. He played so quickly so precise, serving well.

“For a set and a half, it was too good.

“This match, he broke me in the second, returning to the baseline for three returns in a row. I mean, you can’t do much better so, I had to give it to him.

“But in the end, I was always on the field trying to find ways, trying to fight and trying to see how I could make him miss a few more bullets and put myself in a competing position and I did it, I did well and then I think that I felt like … It was a difficult game when I saved these two points of match, two bad double defects.

“But to come back and play this way in equality and in the third set, it means a lot for me in the future.”

The Canadian was then asked about “Ranger” his second service during the match.

He said: “Well, I had to move better after my second service, because you hit a second service, he plays early and he hits you very hard. So there is not much that you can do, sometimes it’s too good.

“But I had to move my feet a little more, start the rally, then see how it goes.

“I think I did it better. I was more constantly coherent at the end of this second set and the third set. ”

Auger-Aliassime would lose to lose the possible champion Borna Coric in the next round.

Felix Auger-Aliassime demolished the sinner Jannik to the Madrid 2022 Open

A few months earlier, the sinner and Auger-Aliassime met for the first time on the ATP Tour during another Masters 1000: The Madrid Open event.

In 2022, the sinner was almost two years old to win his first Grand Chelem title in Australia. Therefore, it will be extremely interesting to see how players accumulate when you consider the development that the sinner has made during these three years.

The winner of Sinner and Auger-Aliassime will face either the Terence Atmane or Holger Rune qualification in the semi-final of Cincinnati.
