The second-seeded Auger-Aliassime will play American Sebastian Korda for his third ATP title on Sunday. Korda defeated Dominic Thiem of Austria in Saturday’s other semifinal.

Auger-Aliassime is coming off his second ATP Tour victory last weekend at the Firenze Open, where he defeated J.J. Wolf of the U.S. in the final.
