Auger-Aliassime top Canadian in world tennis rankings at 13 after U.S. Open success

Canada's Felix Auger-Aliassime climbed to No. 13 in the world rankings Monday after his run to men's singles semifinals at the U.S. Open.

Auger-Aliassime, who reached a career-high No. 6 in 2022, jumped 14 spots and remains the highest-ranked Canadian man.

The 25-year-old from Montreal advanced to a Grand Slam semifinal for the first time since the 2021 U.S. Open.

He upset third seed Alexander Zverev, 15th seed Andrey Rublev and eighth seed Alex de Minaur before falling to then-world No. 1 Jannik Sinner in four sets on Friday.

Tournament winner Carlos Alcaraz claimed the No. 1 ranking by defeating Sinner in the final.

Denis Shapovalov of Richmond Hill, Ont., rose three spots to No. 26 after reaching the third round in New York, while Montreal's Gabriel Diallo dropped two places to No. 35 following a second-round exit.
