Felix Auger-Aliassime leads Canada into Davis Cup tie vs. France in Quebec City
Felix Auger-Aliassime and Team Canada will host France in the Davis Cup tie at Quebec City's Videotron Centre this weekend, with a chance to reach the Davis Cup Final 8. The world No. 5 player will lead the Canadian team in the best-of-five series, taking on Quentin Halys in the second singles match on Friday night. Auger-Aliassime, who has a 13-4 Davis Cup record, will be making his first appearance in the tournament since 2024 and representing Canada in his home province.
The absence of several top-ranked French players, including Arthur Fils, provides Canada with an opportunity to secure their first-ever Davis Cup title. The tie, which marks the first time Davis Cup tennis has been played in Quebec City since 1974, is expected to draw large crowds of enthusiastic supporters.
