If Bianca wins on Saturday she could be in the way to topping those guys, if she loses, no. I don’t even remember the name of the guy who lost at the Wimbledon finals a few years. The other one, Bouchard was a one hit wonder.

The US Open is as much as an international stage as Mandalay bay or Madison square garden
Lennox Lewis is another Canadian with world heavyweight title accolades along with his Olympic gold medal. Defeated Evander Holyfield and Knocked out Iron Mike. Fought on many world stages
I’m happy to see Bianca win and hope she beats Serena at the finals, but let’s not get too caught up on the hype where it overshadows the accolades of our greatest Canadian athletes
