His game is much more complete than before," says Auger-Aliassime about de Minaur
Felix Auger-Aliassime will face Alex de Minaur at the US Open for a spot in the semifinals. When asked about his upcoming opponent in a press conference, the Canadian praised the Australian's qualities and discussed his improvements in his game.
He stated: "His strengths have always been his mobility on the court, his ability to keep the ball in play, to react to the opponent's speed, and to defend effectively.
But what's particularly interesting is that he now steps into the court much more often.
That's why he's here today. He now has the ability to react immediately when his opponent gives him the opportunity, to step in quickly and punish. That's why his game has become much more complete than before.
I think every player tries to improve. We all know each other's strengths and what we need to work on in the locker room. The question is whether we can actually make progress.
He has done it, and that's why he's been consistently in the Top 10 for a while now.
