–
Félix Auger-Aliassime had to beat Rafael Nadal to stay alive in his debut appearance at the ATP Finals.
Of course, Nadal had to do the exact same thing, as both lost their openers.
Uncle Toni Nadal was in the box for the Canadian, despite his nephew being on the other side of the net. Was that the magic charm?
Auger-Aliassime got it done, and will square off with Taylor Fritz Thursday in a winner-take-all for the second semifinal spot from his group.
