Montreal's Felix Auger-Aliassime will play for his third title of 2025 after downing French qualifier Quentin Halys 5-7, 6-4, 6-3 in the semifinal at the Dubai Tennis Championships on Friday.Montreal native Felix Auger-Aliassime rallies past Quentin Halys 5-7, 6-4, 6-3 on Friday to reach the Dubai Tennis Championships final, where the 24-year-old Canadian will face 11th-ranked Stefanos Tsitsipas of Greece.
It was one of his four break-point conversions out of seven chances in the match as he powered through the deciding set, saving both break points faced."I don't know how I pulled it through today," Auger-Aliassime said post-match. "I only played three-setters this week, we were both feeling a bit tired, I think. It was just having positive self talk, I think everyone can relate.
The victory marked his 16th win of 2025, the most on Tour. He entered the Dubai event coming off a semifinal loss to Russian Audrey Rublev at the Qatar Open. "It's who's going to be sharp when they need to, and win the important points. It's never easy, but I feel more and more confident that I have the solutions to come through matches like this."Canada's Auger-Aliassime beats Cilic to reach semifinal at Dubai Tennis Championships
