It’s been a few weeks since Félix Auger-Aliassime played a tennis match, after his surprisingly early exit in Australia after dealing with cramping issues.

And in his return, he met an in-form Stan Wawrinka in a match that, even though Auger-Aliassime is a fan favorite in France, had the crowd largely on the Swiss’s side. The two had never, ever met before. And FAA took it in a close one.

And then they had Arthur Fils. Pretty solid night session for an ATP 250.

(Montpellier is 6 hours ahead of ET).
