No.1 Stefanos Tsitsipas is out of the Queen’s Club Championships after losing in straight sets to Felix Auger Aliassime in the quarterfinals on Friday.
Auger Aliassime, 18, was assured in his victory, serving seven aces on his way to confirming his place in last four. He claimed the match’s first break of serve in the final game of the opening set before he broke Tisitsipas a further two times in the second.
Auger Aliassime, who reached the final of the Mercedes Cup on grass in Stuttgart last week, is yet to win a title since turning professional in 2017 but is at a career high ranking of 21.
The Canadian will face either Spain’s Feliciano Lopez or fellow Canadian Milos Raonic in the next round.
In the men’s doubles, former world no.1 Andy Murray continues his return from a hip injury injury later on Friday.
