Felix Auger-Aliassime and Alejandro Davidovich have starred in one of the best matches of this Wimbledon 2026. In the end, it was the Canadian tennis player who secured his spot in the quarterfinals to face Novak Djokovic, and at the conclusion of the match, they both had a spat over a controversial incident in the fourth set.

When Auger-Aliassime was serving to close the match, with Alejandro leading 15-40, the Spanish player twisted his ankle and stopped the game. He was able to continue eventually, broke the Canadian's serve to level the fourth set, and won it in a tie break, forcing the match into the deciding set. Felix completely lost his focus after that interruption, and began making more mistakes than ever before, something that lingered in his mind until the end of the fifth set.

 

 

Aliassime rejects the handshake from Davidovich

Despite Auger-Aliassime winning the fifth set 6-1, the handshake at the net was very cold, so Davidovich started explaining once they greeted the chair umpire, as the Canadian didn't understand how he could have continued playing after appearing to be completely injured. In fact, the situation escalated further when Auger-Aliassime celebrated it with the crowd.

As he was seated, with his nerves calmer, Davidovich tried again to explain, but Felix was too heated to accept his apologies. In fact, the Spanish player tried to shake hands to make amends, although the Canadian rejected it. A bittersweet end to an epic match with constant plot twists and an outstanding level of play from both. It is best to remember that, the match itself, and not everything that followed which tarnishes what was seen on the court.
