Felix Auger‐Aliassime played big during the first round of the ATP 500 in Tokyo. And he finally found his smile once more thanks to a victory once morest the 54th in the world, Aleksandar Vukic: 7–6(3), 6–7(2), 6–2, in 2h54 of play.
The Canadian, who has been going through a very complicated period for several months, won his first victory on the main circuit since his success once morest Matteo Berrettini in Cincinnati on August 14, and his second ATP victory in only four and a half months.
He did not tremble following the loss of the second set, quickly regaining control of the match to finally win.
A (small) clearing in the sky of Auger Aliassime.
For the third time since the beginning of April, the Canadian won a match on the main circuit:
