Canada’s Auger-Aliassime drops out of ATP top 10, falls six spots to No. 13

Nov 2, 2026 | 7:31 AM

Montreal’s Félix Auger-Aliassime has dropped six spots to No. 13 in the latest ATP men’s tennis rankings.

The 26-year-old Canadian, who has a 37-18 record this season, lost 640 ranking points in Monday’s update to fall outside the top 10 for the first time in over a year.

Auger-Aliassime won his lone title of 2026 in Montpellier, France, in February after capturing three last year. He also reached the French Open quarterfinals in June, climbing to a career-high No. 4 in the world.

Denis Shapovalov of Richmond Hill, Ont., climbed one spot to No. 51, while Liam Draxl of Newmarket, Ont., rose 26 places to No. 168 and Montreal’s Gabriel Diallo dropped 20 spots to No. 169.

All four Canadians will join Duncan Chan of Markham, Ont., on Canada’s roster for the Davis Cup Final 8 in Bologna, Italy, from Nov. 24-29.
