Félix Auger-Aliassime Qualifies for ATP Finals After Djokovic’s Hellenic Championship Win
Canadian tennis star Félix Auger-Aliassime has officially secured his place at the 2025 ATP Finals in Turin following Novak Djokovic’s victory at the Hellenic Championship today, November 9, 2025.

He also reached the quarterfinals in Shanghai and the final of the Paris Masters, further solidifying his position in the rankings.
