Felix Auger-Aliassime received ATP top 10 Award

Felix Auger-Aliassime was presented this week in the ATP’s Monaco office with a trophy to celebrate his breakthrough into the Top 10 of the FedEx ATP Rankings last month.

The Canadian star on 15 November reached a career-high World No. 10 after reaching the semi-finals of the Stockholm Open. He ended his season at World No. 11.

Felix is the third Canadian singles player to crack the Top 10 since the inception of the FedEx ATP Rankings in 1973. The 21-year-old joined Milos Raonic, who achieved the milestone in 2013, and Denis Shapovalov, who accomplished the feat in 2020.
