Felix almost dropped out of the top 30 last summer. He raised his level during the American hard court swing and finished the season in the top 5 for the first time in his career after the semi-finals of the ATP Finals.
One of the Tour’s most explosive athletes is now fully focused on delivering his best tennis when it matters most: on the highest-profile stage of the Majors, where he has yet to reach the final.
A two-time US Open semifinalist understands exactly what it takes to survive the physical and mental grind of seven best-of-five meetings, against arguably the best opponents in the world.
His aggressive mentality, heavy serve and willingness to play up front give him the weapons to challenge anyone. However, consistency remains the key to turning potential into silverware.
That wasn’t always the case in the past, when Auger-Aliassime embraced 14 consecutive Majors without reaching a quarter-final, having reached three in a row during his best run.
With Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz setting the benchmark at the sport’s biggest events, Felix knows the margin for error is razor-thin. Yet he is eager to take on the challenge, while understanding what it will take to embrace the Great Glory.
The Canadian will look to rise above an increasingly competitive field and add his name to tennis history. As 2026 begins, Auger-Aliassime is ready to test herself against the very best.
Sinner and Alcaraz are the favorites in Melbourne, but no one will want to see world number one. 5 on the other side of the net as he shows off all his weapons.
“I know that winning a Major would require everything from me, and that I have to give everything. It is clear that I am a powerful player, with an aggressive and courageous game, always looking for progress.
I need everything to be 100% effective. My serve has to be excellent, and I have to do everything else with a very high level of consistency if I want to win seven games in a row.
There is a lot of competition, spectacular players who will fight for this goal, but the challenge is the same for everyone: you have to be the best of the best,” said Felix Auger-Aliassime.
