Felix Auger-Aliassime on his love story with his now wife Nina, which began at Miami 2019, for @voguemagazine:
“When I couldn’t shake the thought of her, I felt strongly compelled to meet her before leaving the city if I wanted to leave with no regrets. I decided to send her a message asking if we could go for a dinner during the tournament and was quite relieved when she was open to the idea.
Without sounding cliche, it was truly love at first sight. After two hours, I told her this was the start of a long and beautiful future together, and within days, we both knew that we wanted to marry. I think that sums up our relationship quite well: never a sliver of doubt, instant comfortability, a young and innocent honesty, and love that never stopped growing from the moment we laid eyes on each other.
[Fast forward to the proposal... Grab the tissues]
While relaxing outside on our balcony together [in November 2024 during a vacation to the Seychelles], I asked her to grab my notebook from inside our room. What was supposed to be my notebook was actually a letter from me to her. A letter that dated back to May 5, 2019, written a month and a half after our very first meeting. It was a letter that I had kept through all of the years to one day show her just how confident I was that we’d still be together years later.”
[The wedding took place on September 20, 2025 in Marrakech, Morocco - Nina's father's origin country]
In case you missed it, Elena Rybakina was SUPERB last night against Pegula at Billie Jean King Cup.
Winner after winner after winner after winner… all day long. 🤌

Carlos Alcaraz with BEAUTIFUL point construction against Jannik Sinner at the U.S. Open.
Federer-esque slice that stays so low.
Huge forehand winner to finish it.
Wow.
Amanda Anisimova comes back to beat Naomi Osaka 6-7(4), 7-6(3), 6-3 and reach her first #USOpen final.
2h56, finished at 0.54am in NYC
Back to back Slam finals for Anisimova. What a way to react to that Wimbledon double bagel
Osaka loses in a GS QF, SF or F for the 1st time.
Carlos Alcaraz hits a HUGE inside-in forehand winner against Lehecka at the U.S. Open.
To be able to produce this type of power while moving backwards is crazy.
His reaction: 😮💨
My thoughts exactly.
2023 Wimbledon champ Marketa Vondrousova defeats 2022 Wimbledon champ Elena Rybakina 6-4, 5-7, 6-2 to reach the #USOpen QFs. Back to back top 10 wins after beating Paolini.
UNBELIEVABLE performance: 13 aces, 29 winners, 15 UE.
5th career Grand Slam QF, 2nd in NYC.
5-time Grand Slam champ Iga Swiatek easily beats former Olympic champ Belinda Bencic 6-2, 6-0 to reach her first #Wimbledon final.
6th Grand Slam final. Won the previous five.
Cyrus fell asleep for the last time yesterday. I write this in absolute silence. The apartment that was too small for him now feels smaller in his absence. He is everywhere even though he isn’t. When I hear a knock, I expect his bark but it is going to be quiet from now on.
