Felix Auger-Aliassime has been one of the form players on the ATP Tour during the second half of 2025. <\/p>\n

The Canadian reached the semifinal of the US Open<\/a> back in September, and he\u2019s used that as a catalyst to climb the world rankings. <\/p>\n

Auger-Aliassime<\/a> is currently holding onto a place at the ATP Finals<\/a>, and he will make the tournament unless Lorenzo Musetti<\/a> wins in Athens this week. <\/p>\n

Auger-Aliassime made the smart call to skip Metz<\/a> this week, and he will get the chance to get some rest under his belt after a long Asian and indoor swing. <\/p>\n

Andy Roddick has given some advice to Auger-Aliassime<\/a>, and it does feel like the next year or so could be crucial in the development of the Canadian star. <\/p>\n

Now, another former player has delivered their verdict on Auger-Aliassime and what he perhaps needs to do to maintain his current levels of consistency. <\/p>\n

The former player has been speaking on the latest episode of The Rennae Stubbs Podcast<\/a> and has paid some compliments to Auger-Aliassime. <\/p>\n

She has, however, shared what she would do as a matter of urgency if she were the one responsible for coaching Auger-Aliassime. <\/p>\n

She said: \u201cI have always said that if I were coaching him, I would shake him. Like literally shake him and be like \u2018relax\u2019! Just chill out!<\/p>\n

\u201cI just want him to relax. I would almost say to him, one match, listen, here is the deal. It does not matter if you win. I want to see literally how much fun you can have.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want you to be a little bit like a Roger Federer type, who he has modelled so much of his game on, he was born the same day as Roger just about 12 years later.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd just relax. Almost tank. I just want to see you semi-tank a match!\u201d<\/p>\n

Auger-Aliassime could qualify for the ATP Finals even if Musetti wins Athens Open<\/p>\n

Novak Djokovic claimed that he\u2019s not sure if he will play the ATP Finals, and that could be good news for both players in question. <\/p>\n

If Musetti were to win in Athens and overtake Auger-Aliassime, the 25-year-old would still get in as the first alternate should Djokovic withdraw. <\/p>\n

At 38, Djokovic has to prioritise his schedule a little bit better these days, and he might choose to take an extended break in order to fully focus on the Australian Open and another tilt at Grand Slam title number 25. <\/p>\n

Given that Djokovic fancies his chances of beating Jannik Sinner or Carlos Alcaraz over a best-of-three sets format, he might be itching to play. <\/p>\n

However, if he doesn\u2019t, the field would still look pretty strong, and it would be fascinating to see how the emerging Musetti and Auger-Aliassime would handle the tournament given their form this year. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Follow us on Google Discover Felix Auger-Aliassime has been one of the form players on the ATP Tour…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":274983,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[72],"tags":[430,22622,99,428],"class_list":{"0":"post-274982","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tennis","8":"tag-atp","9":"tag-felix-auger-aliassime","10":"tag-sports","11":"tag-tennis"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/274982","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=274982"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/274982\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/274983"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=274982"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=274982"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=274982"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
