Felix Auger-Aliassime has qualified this year’s ATP Finals, joining Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner, Novak Djokovic, Alexander Zverev, Taylor Fritz, Ben Shelton and Alex de Minaur in the elite eight-man field.
He secured his qualification on Saturday after Lorenzo Musetti, the only other player left in contention for the last spot, fell to Djokovic in a grueling three-set final in Athens. The Italian, currently No. 9 in the Race to the ATP Finals standings, needed to win the title at the ATP 250 event to pass Auger-Aliassime, who’s currently in the No. 8 spot.
So now the Canadian punches his ticket to Turin for the second time in his career, having also qualified for the eight-man event in 2022.
Musetti and Alexander Bublik will be the first and second alternates.
More to come…
