Auger-Aliassime has been in excellent form in New York this year, which contrasts with his form at tournaments leading up to the Grand Slam. However, in New York, he started with wins over Billy Harris and Roman Safiullin in the first two rounds. Afterward, he faced off against Alexander Zverev and Andrey Rublev in the next two matches, against whom the Canadian had 2-6 and 1-7 head-to-head records, respectively.

Felix Auger-Aliassime played inspired tennis in those two rounds, winning both matches in four sets to reach the quarterfinal. Against De Minaur, he lost the first set, faced set points in the second set, and had a 2-5 deficit in the fourth set. However, he overcame all difficulties and won the match in four sets yet again.

This is not the first time that Felix Auger-Aliassime has made a deep run at the New York Major. The Canadian player had made a deep run at the US Open three years back in 2021. Being the 12th seed that time, he started with wins over Evgeny Donskoy and Bernabe Zapata Miralles in the first two rounds.

As the event went on, Auger-Aliassime maintained his form, winning against the likes of Roberto Bautista Agut and Frances Tiafoe in the next two rounds, reaching the quarterfinals, where he won via retirement against Carlos Alcaraz, as the Spaniard retired from the match in the second set. Auger-Aliassime faced Daniil Medvedev in the semifinals and lost in straight sets as the Russian player won the title with a win over Novak Djokovic in the final.

This year, Auger-Aliassime has a 34-19 win-loss record, with two titles on Tour in Adelaide and Montpellier, and an overall 21-8 win-loss record on hard courts.
