Félix Auger-Aliassime (born August 8, 2000) is a Canadian tennis player. He reached a career high ATP singles ranking of No. 374 on March 20, 2017 and a career high ITF junior ranking of No. 2 on June 6, 2016. In July 2015, he became the youngest player to break the Top 800 on the ATP rankings at No. 749. He is also the youngest to qualify and to win a main draw match on the ATP Challenger Tour. Auger-Aliassime won the 2016 US Open junior singles title and the 2015 US Open junior doubles title with compatriot Denis Shapovalov.

Auger-Aliassime was born in Montreal but raised in L'Ancienne-Lorette, a suburb of Quebec City. His father Sam Aliassime is from Togo and his mother Marie Auger from the province of Quebec. He has an older sister Malika who also plays tennis. He started playing tennis at 4 and trained at the Club Avantage as a member of the Académie de Tennis Hérisset-Bordeleau in Quebec City. In 2012, he won the Open Super Auray in the age 11 to 12 category. He has been a member of Tennis Canada's National Training Centre in Montreal since the fall of 2014.

In February, Auger-Aliassime won his first ITF junior singles title at the G3 in Querétaro. A week later, he won his second straight ITF junior singles title and first doubles title at the G4 in Zapopan. At the Challenger Banque Nationale de Drummondville in March, Auger-Aliassime became the youngest player in history to qualify for an ATP Challenger main draw at 14-and-a-half-year-old. He defeated compatriot Jack Mingjie Lin, former world no. 67 Chris Guccione and world no. 433 Fritz Wolmarans to do so. He however was forced to withdraw before playing his first round match due to an abdominal strain. With the points earned, Auger-Aliassime made once again history as the first player born in the 2000s to have an ATP ranking.
