Auger-Aliassime wins in Florence

Final day in Florence.

2022 UniCredit Firenze Open, an ATP 250 tournament, on Hard Indoor, in Florence, Italy, 10-16 October 2022.

This is the first time the tournament has been held since 1994, when Marcelo Filippini defeated Richard Fromberg 3-6 6-3 6-3 in the final.

Final:

Felix Auger-Aliassime (1) (Canada) v J.J. Wolf (USA)

This was the first meeting between the players.

Wolf saved three break points in the opening game of the match, but couldn’t save a fourth.
The pair exchanged breaks in the second and third games for Felix to lead 2-1.

Wolf saved three break points in the seventh game to avoid being down a double break.
The American also held serve in the ninth game, forcing Felix to serve for the set.
Felix surrendered just a single point in wrapping it up 6-4.

Wolf saved a couple of break points in game one of set two, but was broken to love in the fifth game.
No more service breaks and Felix Auger-Aliassime served out the set and match 6-4 6-4.

This was the Canadian’s second title from eleven finals, following his win in Rotterdam in February this year.
