Felix Auger-Aliassime has beaten two former UCLA NCAA champions in two days, winning 7-6(7), 6-1 on Wednesday at the Terra Wortmann Open in Halle after defeating Marcos Giron in the first round.
Where did Hubert Hurkacz go to college?
With a stinging return, the Canadian saved a set point at 6/7 in the first tie-break and won the next two points to take the set. McDonald overcame his frustration to win the first game of set two, but Auger-Aliassime dominated from there, winning 16 of the next 17 points to take control of the match.
The Polish national, however, ended this winning streak. Hurkacz defeated Felix Auger-Aliassime 7-6(2, 7-6(4) in both tie-breaks in yesterday’s quarter-final match (June 17)
Hubert has therefore booked his place in his third semi-final of the season at the ATP 500 event and is he set to face the 27-year-old Austrian Nicholas Hilmy Kyrgios, later today (June 18).
Hubert is said to be well educated and his career had commenced even high school days through to College. However, facts about his educational background is limited.
