Awesome! Thought he was done like dinner after going down 3-0. That has to be fantastic for his confidence and mental game moving forward. Very, very cool to have an all-Canuck final tomorrow.

Nothing against Raonic, but I will be cheering for Pospisil on Sunday. I love the emotion he shows out there.

Terrible start for Pospisil. Raonic broke him in the first game, and very easily so.

I am always amazed at the angles Pospisil gets on his inside-out forehands though.

Double break now. Looking like an anti-climactic final.

Agreed, but Pospisil is pretty clearly running on fumes. Good thing both guys get tomorrow off.

Definitely. He probably got very little sleep last night considering when his match against white powder ended and the post-match routine he has to go through with cool down, stretching and what not. He also seems to be one of those players who takes a little bit of time to find their groove, so to sleep. He really looks better in the second set.

Hopefully Raonic can keep serving like this for the next four weeks...

Happy to see Milos win! And so proud of Vasek too, he looks pretty frustrated but he's got a lot to be proud of and played awesome this week.

What an incredible year for Canadian tennis!!!

Raonic continues to show why he's been a top ten player all season and Vasek, although obviously worn down, showed why he's not yet cracked the top 20.

Terrific result for the Canadian's though!

Brayden Schnur ranked in the 600s has qualified for the Rogers Cup main draw beating Ebden and Sugiya in qualifying. Two really good players.

The are 5 canadians in the mens draw.

Raonic
Pospisil
Dancevic
Polansky
Schnur

Schnur sounds like he is going to be a beast, I am happy he made the draw, have been wanting to see him play for a while. His freshman year was pretty amazing in the NCAA.... 13th ranked player overall and top freshman almost of the guys ranked ahead of him were 2-3 years older, ranking is low because he has hardly played any professional tennis.

Schnur drew Seppi in the first round, that's definitely winnable.

Meanwhile, Federer is playing ball hockey with Phil Kessel.
