At Roland Garros 2022, Félix Auger-Aliassime and Rafael Nadal met for the round of 16. There the uncle of the manacorí and trainer of the Canadian, Toni Nadal had expressed that he was not going to sit in the box of either of the two players. “I already told you, that I would never tell you if my nephew had this or that. Above all, I am Rafael’s uncle and I work for him, and even if I didn’t, I would never go and tell someone else how to beat him.” Tío Toni expressed in the past month of June.
But, for the new duel of the ATP Finals between these two players, in which the loser will be eliminated from the tournament, Toni confessed to Diario Marca that he will be present on the Auger-Aliassime bench: “At Roland Garros it was different, because there is something else there. Nothing happens here, but what I won’t do is celebrate any point. Whoever wins, it won’t be a tragedy. What difference does it make to be there or here”.
This Tuesday Rafa Nadal and Félix Auger-Aliassime will meet in search of their first win in the 2022 edition of the Masters Tournament that is played in Turin. In his first match, the Spaniard fell to Taylor Fritz while the Canadian couldn’t get past Casper Ruud.
