Félix Auger-Aliassime is the leading Canadian man in tennis in 2026. Born on August 8, 2000, in Montreal and raised in L’Ancienne-Lorette, near Quebec City, he is the son of Sam Aliassime, a tennis coach originally from Togo. His mother, Marie Auger, is from Quebec. He turned professional in 2017 and now lives in Monte Carlo.
His breakthrough season was 2022: four titles (Rotterdam, Florence, Antwerp, Basel), a first ATP Finals appearance, and the Davis Cup and ATP Cup with Canada. He added a bronze medal in mixed doubles with Gabriela Dabrowski at the Paris 2024 Olympics. In 2025 he went up another level, with titles in Adelaide, Montpellier and Antwerp, a US Open semi-final, a Paris Masters final lost to Jannik Sinner, and a first semi-final at the ATP Finals, where Carlos Alcaraz stopped him. He finished that year at No. 5 and married Nina Ghaibi in Marrakech in September 2025.
2026 has been a season of contrasts. He defended his Montpellier title in February for a ninth career title, reached the Roland-Garros quarter-finals to become the first Canadian man to make the last eight at all four majors, and climbed to a career-high No. 4 on June 8. He then lost a five-set, five-hour quarter-final to Novak Djokovic at Wimbledon 2026, split with Frédéric Fontang, his coach for about ten years, withdrew from Montreal with a back injury and went out early at the US Open.
The response came on October 2: Ivan Ljubičić, Roger Federer’s former coach, joined his team. The partnership started at the Shanghai Masters 2026, where Auger-Aliassime, seeded fourth, saved his opener against Camilo Ugo Carabelli before meeting Pablo Carreño Busta on October 12. The stakes are high: he started the tournament 15th in the race for the ATP Finals 2026, with eight places available in Turin. Sources: ATP Tour, Tennis Canada, TSN, Tennis.com, Wikipedia.
