LONDON (Reuters) - Felix Auger-Aliassime's rapidly-rising star fizzled out at Wimbledon on Friday as the 18-year-old was comprehensively outshone by Frenchman Ugo Humbert in a tussle between the two youngest players left in the men's draw.
Such is Auger-Aliassime's obvious potential that the 19th seed had been touted as an outside bet to go all the way, but those predictions looked far-fetched as the Canadian was brushed aside 6-4 7-5 6-3 by 21-year-old Humbert in a one-sided third-round tie.
