Second career meeting between the 2 players.
The second and fourth seeds at the 2025 Mallorca Championships, Felix Auger-Aliassime and Tallon Griekspoor have successfully navigated their challenging draws to reach the semifinals. It will be a fast paced clash with plenty of forehand to forehand exchanges and entertainment guaranteed. The winner of this match will face either Alex Michelsen or Corentin Moutet in the final.
Felix Auger-Aliassime is currently going through a tumultuous phase in his career. The 24-year-old Canadian won two titles at Adelaide and Open Occitanie in the early parts of the season, but failed to make a noteworthy impact since. But wins over the likes of Roger Federer on grass in the past speak volumes of his skillset – making his 84% service game success rate unsurprising. FAA beat Rinderknech and Medjedovic to reach the final four.
Dutch starlet Tallon Griekspoor is yet to win a trophy in the 2025 campaign. The 28-year-old reached his solitary final at the Grand Prix Hassan II. With wins over Alexander Zverev and Daniil Medvedev this year, Griekspoor has proven that he can upset any Top-10 player on his day. He has put up a record of 22-12 this season.
Victory Secured ✅

On faster courts, Auger-Aliassime has excelled in the past. The match is likely to feature a lot of down the line winners and heavy wide serves. Both players are averaging in the 60s when it comes to first serve percentage. However, it is the Canadian who managed a considerable improvement in his follow-up after the serve. We predict that he will edge past the Dutchman in this feisty tussle.
Prediction: Felix Auger-Aliassime in three sets.
