The Alejandro Davidovich Fokina – Félix Auger-Aliassime match had to be relocated in the middle of the match because of the noisy supporters of Arthur Cazaux, who plays on the next field.
Butte Cazaux is still up to its tricks. The dozens of supporters of the Montpellier tennis player forced the referee of the Davidovich Fokina – Auger-Aliassime match, which was being played on the next court, to change courts.
The reason ? The supporters were making too much noise and it was becoming unplayable for the Spaniard and the Canadian.

Last year, when Arthur Cazaux reached the round of 16 of the Australian Open, the crowd had already wreaked havoc. A strong support for the 22-year-old Frenchman, currently in the running for the second round of the 2025 edition.
“They set the court on fire”
“Today, I felt like I was playing in France, at home. They set the court on fire. They pushed me from the first to the last point. Without them, it would have been harder”, appreciated the player after the first tour.
Songs, shouts and encouragements that force the organization to adapt and relocate matches. Oops.
