Both I think - she seems to be playing through an injury too.

Perhaps, but it was 2 MTO's to 1 in Amanda's favour. In reality, it should have been a straight sets win for Bianca, she needs to be more clinical on those break points.

Yes, I agree. Her frustration was palpable.

That was a good matchup between the two. Women's tennis can be so hot and cold for the players, but Anisimova is another one that could be a force on the circuit.

Milos gets things going at 9 am Mountain time versus Ugo Humbert. Also kicking off at that same time is Ash Barty vs. Vika. Denis takes on Hubert Hurkacz a little later this morning. TSN or DAZN (ladies matches) should have you covered.

Also, it is pretty funny reading twitter threads out there and seeing the hatred out there for Bianca taking a MTO. Part of me felt like responding and then I decided not to give these people any more oxygen.

I like Bianca being the villain.

Milos up an early break on Humbert (was down 30-love and rolled off four straight points).

woot!! Milos closes it out in style with an ace and wins 6-4 7-5. A very good performance over Humbert who is a very talented player.

We could have a Milos - Shapo match if Denis defeats Hurkacz which is coming up next on TSN3.

Welp, Hurkacz takes out Shapo in straight sets 6-3 7-6. A bad missed volley at the net in the tie-breaker really led to Shapo's demise today.

My goodness, Karatsev is putting in a Tomic the Tank Engine performance today. Lost the first set to Sebastian Korda 6-3 and is in danger of getting bageled in set 2.

There it is - Korda wins 6-3 6-0 and it makes me wonder what the betting odds were on Korda today and if Karatsev put some money down on the American.

lol - I think Korda is the real deal, he has some weapons (big serve and powerful groundies) and moves very well. Taylor Fritz is poised to take over the No. 1 American spot from Isner, but I think Korda is going to be even better than Fritz.
