Auger-Aliassime advances to US Open semis with win over de Minaur
- On September 3, 2025, at Flushing Meadows, Felix Auger-Aliassime came from behind to defeat Alex de Minaur in four sets—losing the first 4-6 but rallying to win the next three sets 7-6, 7-5, and 7-6—securing a spot in the US Open semifinals.
- The match lasted four hours and 10 minutes and featured a comeback after Auger-Aliassime trailed by a set and a break, with both players showing erratic play due to nerves.
- Auger-Aliassime, the 25-year-old Canadian and 25th seed, hit 22 aces and 51 winners, while de Minaur, an Australian making his sixth grand slam quarterfinal attempt, struggled to convert key chances.
- Auger-Aliassime improved to 6-0 in US Open tiebreakers this year, tying the tournament record since their introduction in 1970, and will face the winner of the quarter-final between Italians Jannik Sinner and Lorenzo Musetti.
- This victory marks Auger-Aliassime's second US Open semifinal, matching his deepest major run from 2021, and signifies a continuation of his recent successful resurgence in form.
