Auger-Aliassime wins 3rd consecutive trophy at Swiss Indoors Basel

Felix Auger-Aliassime won his 3rd trophy in three events by beating Holger Rune in the Swiss Indoors final 6-3 7-5.

It was a clash of players with a winning streak as neither player lost in a while. Auger-Aliassime was looking for his 13th win in a row while Rune wanted to make it his tenth. It was a great match between two great players but was clearly better.

Auger-Aliassime faced the first break point only yesterday but he faced some more this week. He didn't face any in the opening set as he dominated his way past Rune on serve while breaking the Dniahs player once which was more than enough for the 6-3 opening set finish.
