Holger Rune avenged his Basel final loss to Auger-Aliassime by beating the Canadian to move to his maiden ATP 1000 final in Paris.
It was a perfect match from Ruud who took apart the game of Auger-Aliassime explaining after the match that he executed the plan perfectly. Felix admitted after the match that Rune exposed the weaknesses in his game.
The Dane said:
“It was an unbelievable match from my side today. I really was sticking to the game plan for the whole match and just taking every chance I got. Putting Felix under pressure, that’s what my game plan was all about, and I managed to do it almost perfectly. I am super proud how I handled everything.”
He added:
“I saw some statistic that [my] backhand is going well in this tournament. So I tried to use that a little bit, especially against Felix who has such a great forehand and serve. It’s good to play the game more on that side, and that was what I tried to do. To put pressure there, move him around, and it worked really well. I really feel the groundstrokes, the returns were much better than I did the last time I played.”
