TURIN, Italy (AP) — Felix Auger-Aliassime beat two-time champion Alexander Zverev and claimed the last spot in the semifinals of the ATP Finals on Friday.
The Canadian’s reward? Carlos Alcaraz, who is fresh from claiming the year-end No. 1 ranking after winning all three of his group matches.
The eighth-seeded Auger-Aliassime won 6-4, 7-6 (4) to join Jannik Sinner in advancing from the Bjorn Borg group. Earlier, Sinner completed a sweep of his round-robin matches by dispatching already-eliminated Ben Shelton 6-3, 7-6 (3).
Sinner will next face seventh-seeded Alex de Minaur. The final is on Sunday.
Third-seeded Zverev and Auger-Aliassime knew the victor would advance to the semifinals.
Auger-Aliassime appeared to deal with the nerves better than Zverev, especially in the second set
