Felix and Bianca both have the same start time (7 PM Eastern) in Toronto and Montreal respectively on Tuesday night. Leylah takes on Peyton Stearns at approximately 2 PM Eastern.

IF he can just stay healthy with a reduced tournament schedule I think it is clear that Milos can still hang with the top players on tour. Tiafoe has been one of the better players on tour and was certainly not an easy win.
He now has a much more doable match against Daniel before he potentially has to tangle with Rublev. All the reps help going into a major and getting back on his feet in terms of the mental side of the matches (which has looked rusty).

I'm a little concerned about his wonky back as it certainly impacted his serve in the 3rd set (he was still hitting aces, but also a ton of double faults). Hopefully, his medical team can work some magic in order for Milos to continue in the tourney.

Leylah just won the opening set over Peyton Stearns 6-3. Only quibble I have is still too many double faults, but the ground strokes are looking excellent thus far.
Edit: Leylah wins 6-3 6-2. Looking good Leylah, keep it going!!

Gabriel Diallo just won the opening set in a tie-break over Dan Evans. Evans won the DC tourney on Sunday, thus this would be a big upset if Gabriel can pull it off.
Edit: Gabriel just broke Evans to start set 2.

Back on serve now as Gabriel tossed in a pretty rough service game.
Edit: Wow, what a return of serve on break point by Gabriel to break right back.

I don't know who Dan Evans is yelling to in his stands (could be his coaches, could be some fans), but Evans is acting like a wanker.
Edit: Back on serve as Gabriel blinks trying to serve it out.
Edit 2: And then Diallo breaks to get a second chance to serve out the match.

I think I watched him in Calgary. I can't fully remember. Did he play in a tournament in Calgary late last year?

Meanwhile, Felix is in deep trouble in his match versus Max Purcell. Bianca likewise against Giorgi.

Bianca and Felix go out within 60 seconds of each other in Montreal and Toronto respectively. Giorgi played great as did Purcell. 20 winners to 29 unforced errors for Felix, that's Edmonton levels of no good.
