Auger-Aliassime ends ATP losing streak with 2nd round win over Fucsovics at European Open

Felix Auger-Aliassime's losing streak on the ATP Tour came to an end Wednesday with a 6-7 (4), 6-4, 6-2 win over Marton Fucsovics in second-round action at the European Open.

The world No. 21 from Montreal then proceeded to drop his next four tour matches, including three to opponents outside the top 50.

Auger-Aliassime, who is seeded third in Antwerp and had a first-round bye, appeared destined for another frustrating match after failing to convert a break in the sixth game before losing the first set in a tiebreaker.
