MADRID — Montreal's Felix Auger-Aliassime has advanced to his first ATP Masters final, and he hasn't had to play all that much tennis to do it.
Lehecka left court for treatment from a physio with what appeared to be back pain. He tried to continue playing, but withdrew three points later. Auger-Aliassime didn't even take the court in the quarterfinals when his opponent, top-seeded Jannik Sinner, withdrew from the tournament with a hip injury.
"It’s crazy. I don’t know if it’s ever happened to a player before,” said Auger-Aliassime."It’s kind of a weird situation to be in on my part. It’s never happened to me in my career so far, a withdrawal or a walkover or retirement of this sort, and back-to-back like this."
