WIMBLEDON — Canada’s Felix Auger-Aliassime was eliminated Thursday in the second round at Wimbledon with a four-set loss to Germany’s Jan-Lennard Struff.

The match resumed in the morning after being suspended Wednesday night due to darkness.

The unseeded Struff completed a 3-6, 7-6 (11), 6-3, 6-4 comeback over the 25th-seeded Canadian.

Auger-Aliassime had 16 aces but converted just three of 13 break-point chances.

The 24-year-old from Montreal was trying to reach the third round for the first time since his 2021 quarterfinal run.
