“I don’t think it’s real,” Felix Auger-Aliassime refuses to believe the ‘Netflix Curse’ as he continues to excel at the 2023 Australian Open

Felix Auger-Aliassime, the 22-year-old Canadian professional is undoubtedly one of the top prospects of the current ATP circuit. Ranked at world number 7, Aliassime is surely a contender for the Australian Open title, and with so many big names already eliminated from the competition, Aliassime has a good chance at going all the way.

The Canadian has been shutting his critics up with excellent performances at the ongoing Australian Open and has been debasing the rumors of the ‘Netflix curse’. The players appearing on the popular Netflix series, “Break Point” seem to get eliminated early on and Auger-Aliassime has been debasing these theories after continued excellent performances at the 2023 Australian Open.

Talking about the curse, Aliassime said, “I was aware that players were losing, but it didn’t cross my mind until my girlfriend showed me that. I thought it was funny, I don’t think it’s connected. Maybe, those who lost do feel it’s connected somehow.“
