I believe sportsnet has the wta contract. They are too busy.

GRAND SLAMS & ATP: TSN/RDS
WTA: SNET/TVA

It's an exciting time to be a tennis fan in Canada with Felix and Denis on the ATP tour and Bianca on the WTA tour. The women's tour is very chaotic so I think Bianca has a chance to make some significant inroads this season. The biggest thing is avoiding burnout from playing too much, but she has a good team surrounding her so hopefully that won't be a problem.

Bianca off to an awful start.

Double break down 3-0. Unforced errors are 10-0.

Started down love-3, now serving for the 1st set up 5-3

Edit: Bianca takes the opening set 6-3. I guess it took 3 games to get rid of the nerves.

Shes just crushing the ball now.

Wins the 1st set 63.

Maybe Monfils needs to go down there and say something.

I watched the exchange between Svitolina and her coach, he was trying to pump her up and she looked like she didn't want to be there.

Bianca breaks to start set 2.

Edit: Svitolina breaks right back at love.

Svitolina's raised her level again. This set is going to be tight.

That was an incredible point that Svitolina ended up winning.

4th and 5th games were lung-busting.

Svitolina leads 4-1

Svitolina takes set 2 by a 6-2 score. She really upped her level in that set combined with Bianca dipping hers.

Bianca breaks to start the 3rd, maybe gets her mojo back.

These are tough, physical points. Bianca still up a break 3-2.
