Auger-Aliassime moved to next round at Indian Wells with win over Tsitsipas Globe_Sports
He defeated Lucas Pouille of France at the Rogers Cup in Toronto last summer and upset No. 16 Fabio Fognini of Italy in the first round of the ATP 500 tournament in Rio de Janeiro two weeks ago.
Auger-Aliassime said he was able to keep his opponent on his back foot and it wasn’t until late in the first set when Tsitsipas moved closer.Afterwards, Tsitsipas pointed to the high-bouncing ball and his opponent’s power as two factors that backed off the baseline. “I thought I was able to be pretty aggressive, like all the other matches we played in juniors,” Auger-Aliassime said. “That’s my style of play. For some reason it fits well with his.”
After a first-round loss in Buenos Aires, Argentina he reached the final in Rio as a wild card. Auger-Aliassime lost to Laslo Djere and reached the quarterfinals the following week in Sao Paulo — where he also lost to Djere.
