Despite the fact that Felix Auger-Aliassime has achieved very prestigious results up to this point in his career, many fans and insiders believe that he has disappointed expectations for several reasons.
The Canadian ace has never come close to winning a Grand Slam title so far, as well as being inferior to young champions like Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz, but he can still aspire to win prestigious titles in the future after finally solving all his physical problems.
Felix's rise has in fact been significantly slowed down by a series of injuries, which took longer than expected to be resolved and which forced him to have a lot of patience. It should not be forgotten that the Canadian has already participated in the Nitto ATP Finals, has risen to sixth position in the ATP ranking and is still 25 years old.
The current world number 19 has made a strong start to the 2025 season, although his run in the first Grand Slam of the year at Melbourne Park ended as early as the second round.
However, Aliassime lifted the trophy in Adelaide and Montpellier in this start of the season, as well as reaching the semifinals in Doha and the final in Dubai (lost to Stefanos Tsitsipas).
Auger-Aliassimeis ready
The Canadian star disappointed in the first Masters 1000 of 2025 the 'BNP Paribas Open' in Indian Wells where he was defeated by the young American Jenson Brooksby on his debut.
Felix will try to get a better result at the Miami Open, where his first opponent will be the Australian ace Tristan Schoolkate.
"I've been working hard physically lately and I've also focused on the mental aspect. I feel so much better in every way," Aliassime said before making his debut in Florida.
The Canadian had to use all his energy to overcome his crisis: "I didn't think my level would drop so much, but I continued to train with the right confidence and I overcame all the challenges.
I'm reaping the rewards of that work now. My main goal in 2025 is to get into the ATP Finals."
