When art meets sports, an indescribable feeling fills the air. Especially in the presence of two great ambassadors of Quebec culture like Félix Auger-Aliassime and pianist Alexandra Stréliski. This is what feeling tennis is about.
For those who didn’t know, Auger-Aliassime has a passion for piano. He plays regularly and is a real musical talent. To celebrate his 22nd birthday over the weekend, Tennis Canada wanted to introduce him to Stréliski, a Montreal composer who is renowned internationally.
Little did Auger-Aliassime know that she also had a special surprise for him on his birthday: an emotional reunion with his family at the National Bank Open presented by Rogers. His reaction to seeing them for the first time in months was as genuine as it gets.
