Félix Auger-Aliassime only made a bite of the Argentinian Camilo Ugo Carabelli (6-0, 6-3, 6-4). It is true that, on paper, the struggle seemed unequal. The young Canadian, who was scared when he started on Parisian ocher – qualification in five sets against the Peruvian Varillalas – this time has no delay in ignition: net victory and without dispute

Auger-Aliassime, ninth in the ATP ranking, will rub the round of 16 to the winner of the Gojo-Krajinovic match. In short, another break-in for the Quebec nugget.

The Belarusian player, former world number one, fell back to the 15th , place in the WTA ranking, will face the Swiss Jil Teichman in the next round, winner earlier in the young Serbian Olga Danilovic (6-4 , 6-1).
