Auger-Aliassime Powers Past Bonzi to Reach Cincinnati Open Quarterfinals

Canadian tennis star Félix Auger-Aliassime produced a clinical performance to advance to the quarterfinals of the Cincinnati Open, defeating France’s Benjamin Bonzi 6-4, 6-3 in just over an hour.

Auger-Aliassime’s booming serve was the key weapon of the match, delivering nine aces and winning nearly 90% of his first-serve points. He was equally ruthless on return, converting all three of his break-point chances to keep Bonzi under constant pressure.

The first set was tightly contested until Auger-Aliassime secured a late break to close it out 6-4. In the second, the Canadian maintained his momentum, breaking early and controlling the baseline exchanges to seal the set 6-3 without facing a single break point.

With this victory, Auger-Aliassime moves into a highly anticipated quarterfinal clash against top seed Jannik Sinner—a matchup that promises power, precision, and plenty of fireworks as both players chase a spot in the semifinals.
