Felix Auger-Aliassime joins Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz with unique statistic following Montpellier title run
ATP
Following his victory at the 2025 Open Occitanie in Montpellier last weekend, Felix Auger-Aliassime has added another notch to his already impressive resume.
The Canadian survived a three-set thriller against American Aleksandar Kovacevic in Sunday's final, requiring a tiebreak in the final set to secure the victory. Known for his prowess on indoor hard courts, Auger-Aliassime won his seventh overall ATP title, with six coming on his preferred surface.
Auger-Aliassime closes the gap on Sinner and Alcaraz
The former World No.6 has had a strong start to the 2025 season, with two titles to his name after prevailing in Adelaide in January. With seven titles to his name, Auger-Aliassime has leapfrogged Argentine Sebastian Baez on the list of players born in 2000 or later who have won titles on the ATP Tour. Baez has won six ATP titles, and Auger-Aliassime, who was born in 2000, now has seven titles on his resume.
This impressive achievement puts the Canadian at number 3 on the list of players born in the year 2000 or later who have won a title on tour. Auger-Aliassime still has a ways to go if he intends on catching up with the two men at the top. World No.1 Jannik Sinner currently leads the list with 19 ATP titles and counting, whereas reigning Wimbledon champion Carlos Alcaraz sits at second place with 16 ATP titles.
Auger-Aliassime will look to add to his title tally this week as he competes at the ABN AMRO Open. The ATP 500 hard court event is one of the few indoor hard court events on tour, with the Canadian being a former champion. He defeated Greek star Stefanos Tsitsipas in 2022, winning his first ATP title in the process.

Not a word about Yastremska trying to ruin Alexandrova's celebration with her postgame actions?? According to WTA regulations, Yastremska has some punishment coming her way for walking-off court, blowing-off postgame rituals with the winner; including no photos, etc.mandoist03-02-2025

- Typical narcissistic cynicism of Kyrgios! Very rarely has a decent word to say about anything. He's abusive, jeeringly loud and obnoxious. He needs to be officially called out by both the ATP and ITF for using foul language in public spaces such as social media. The guy's a vampiric hoon who sucks the lifeblood out of tennis by trying to bolster popularity of the good-for-nothing bad boy image. I once admired Kyrgios for his previous good-willed willingness to get honest help for his mental health issues but that all went down the drain once he figured he could reel money in through publicity stunts using the negativity of his problems in such a way as to declare them 'no longer problems' but something which he could become more entangled in just to boost an anti-hero image. Shame on him for turning his back on common human decency and good-willed fraternity. Instead he opts to make a 'hero' out of villany. I'm sorry Nick but u are only doing more harm to yourself in the long run by trying to serve up a bad name for the sport you claim to so proudly represent. Get real mate, tennis is not for hoons, neither is hoon-behaviour the hallmark of sporting integrity. It's an utter disgrace!
